AFAICT #Section230 defaults the internet to small, independent websites letting people post dumb shit. And that's great cause sometimes that stuff isn't actually dumb, it was just unlikely to be thought of or said, especially by the wealthy/powerful. It was low-key genius.

Without it, everybody would need to be a lot more careful. Kinda like what we see with overly cautious moderation here on this social network of small, independent websites. IMHO

@Tuxi ⁂ Was stört's die deutsche Eiche, wenn sich die Sau an ihr reibt?

Was stört's den Friendica-Nutzer, wenn der Riesennode, auf dem er ist, von 8000 Mastodon-Instanzen blockiert wird, weil Friendica Mastodons Quote-Post-Opt-In/Opt-Out nicht berücksichtigt? Und auf über 700 *key-Instanzen, weil deren Admins gar nicht wissen, warum zum Fediblock dieses Node aufgerufen wurde, aber vorsichtshalber mal mitmachen?

Great, looks like my name ended up on a list for bots, as target for spam. I know that getting diabetes meds is very difficult in the US right now, but let's just say the chances of all of them contacting a person on the other side of the planet and plenty of others from hell knows where with exactly the same text in exactly the same way but different profiles... I have my doubts this is legit.

Please, dear Fedi Admins, if a spam wave is incoming, lock your registration temporarily, or at least set them to applications you have to unlock manually. You are not doing yourself nor your users a favour by letting the doors unlocked and ending up getting limited or defederated entirely over this because other instances choose to protect themselves from phishing spam or whatever that is.

this is true of federating with #threads too. they cannot tag us here yet. more hate speech there doesn't mean we will see it unless we follow those users. feeling icky shouldn't be enough reason to disconnect. if this were the sentiment in the 90s, we'd have a much different web today.

when/if they do fully federate, this will definitely be an issue if they go beyond just allowing shitty opinions to not policing their users who harass others. #fediblockmeta

It's like @mmasnick.bsky.social is slowly forgetting that actually decentralized social media exists. Moderation is different (and better) here. You can let them have their own servers and post anything and only moderate if they bother your users. I know that's different on services like #xitter #threads and #bluesky where letting anybody see it means you have to host it and possibly spread it with your algos. the open web has horrible pages most never see. #SocialWeb #fediblockmeta

can people be actually kicked off of #bluesky (not just added to mod lists etc)? who has been? where is the criteria listed, who decides and how is it done technically?

imo this shouldn't be possible on decentralized social media. horrible people posting evil shit should be able to start their own servers and it be up to everybody else whether to federate with them (and up to local legal entities re possible crimes and prosecution). like the rest of the internet. #SocialWeb #fediblockmeta
