We should defederate from lemmy.dbzer0.com (kbin.social)

I'm extremely happy to see this instance taking a serious stance against illegal content.

It seems like the wide majority of the community does agree that its important to keep ourselves safe from the legal repercussions that might result from browsing content that is often considered illegal.

As such I am expecting the full support of the community in defederating with lemmy.dbzer0.com, which has a large focus on open discussion, promotion and aiding of internet piracy. Piracy, of course, is a crime in most every jurisdiction, including Poland.

Following this, I would also suggest that we, as a community, look into defederating with lemmy.world, federotica.com, reddthat.com and kbin.social for promoting pornography. Pornography is, of course, a crime in Malaysia, Vietnam, The Philippines, Indonesia and Thailand.

Pinging @ernest as well.

I keep seeing cries for defederation. do you people not understand the entire point of federation? dbzer0 doesn't allow direct links and thus is legal. the admin there is careful about following the law. there's no risk in federating with them. the guy running it was the guy running /r/piracy on reddit which remained open and okay.

though looking at your comment, is this a joke? satire? you stated that kbin.social should defederate with itself?
