It's illegal so of course they have to block it.
You can find pirated material on the web elsewhere so why is it important if it's on Lemmy or not?
Imagine if the idiotic media starts writing about Lemmy as a pirate network or something worse.
It's adult individuals running these servers, not companies. They would get punished in 2 seconds.
You want them to risk committing crimes for running a Lemmy instance?
If you want to downvote this, maybe you should run something illegal first in public and see how it goes.
I don't get it.... You can start 100 pirate instances if you want. Just not federate with Lemmy.world.
You all can leave .world whenever you want to; nothing's stopping you
I need help. Can someone log in to lemmy dbzer0? I cant, every time I try I get a 400 bad request error.
The chilling effect works. Can't you run an instance anonymously, or do you have to give PII to set one up?
