The largest piracy community is hosted over at [email protected]

lemmy.world has blocked it. It appears to have also blocked [email protected].

If this is a problem for you, I’d suggest migrating accounts using LASIM to an instance that doesn’t block it (such as lemm.ee).

    I don’t think there’s anything set in stone, really. Or if it is it was Tl;Dr for me.

    But in the past we used to vote (with upvotes/downvotes and or opinions in form of comments) on decisions or at least some instances/communities did/do it like that.

    I don’t know about any vote having been done on this decision though since I’m pretty sure if there was this decision wouldn’t have been made.

    Though from the view of the Admin I can definitely understand blocking piracy communities, because if someone uploaded copyright infringing content on any instance, every instance that federates with it would get into major trouble for (1) cloning such content and (2) making it available to more users. Kind of like torrenting without the P2P aspect.
