Except:

  • how do you decide what company is a threat and what company isn't?
  • the users that consider Meta already a threat can block Threads themselves

Why would you want an administrator to make those decisions on your behalf?

The users who don't consider Meta a threat can find a server that won't block them. Or start their own.

Admin's website, admin's rules.

I think it sends a good message. That we don't want your corporate garbage at all. From the top down.

It's less effort for me to go out and block garbage. If they start blocking stuff I don't want blocked I can either migrate or work on selfhosting.
