Would banning threads users be a mod violation? (lemmy.world)

Can I make a rule for my community that threads users will be banned?
If .world doesn't defederate and threads users find their way into my community, I want to ban any that interact. Using anything meta related is a fundamental violation of the values I hold for using FOSS and the fediverse.
Would doing so violate the guidelines? I don't see anything suggesting it would, but want to check.

How would you know what a user uses? Defederating from Meta and any instances that federate with Meta should be enough.

I wouldn't until they commented or posted. Then you can see their instance in the user name.
And I agree, defederation would be great. But I don't control that. So, short of packing up shop, this is my idea for now.

Ah, I see. With your own instance that doesn't federate with Meta or with instances which federate with Meta you won't have such users.
