I joined .world before aussie.zone was a thing. Now with them banning all the piracy communities it seems a slippery slope for all other kinds of discussions too.

I'm Australian. Aussies are notorious pirates. Does aussie.zone have plans to also defederate dbzer0 etc?

Just want some clarity before moving here.

Thanks!

Your use of the words "plans" and "policy" suggest a level of strategy that would be a little generous.

We are not equipped to monitor all the assorted communities on all the instances in the fediverse and ad-hoc go about blocking communities for every potential activity that goes against the site rules here. Even the lemmy.world actions of blocking a couple of communities is the weakest bit of token effort possible.

That's a long-winded way of saying 'no - we have no plans'. I don't even see what risk the lemmy.world people thought they'd be exposed to if their users posted content on some other instance.

For visibility, these are the instances blocked here:
lemmygrad.ml
lemmynsfw.com
federotica.com
exploding-heads.com
pornlemmy.com

Cheers mate. That's all I wanted to know. Common sense and Aussie values basically.

Aussies are against having a wank?

I feel like Australians are against being a wanker, but not against having a wank.

It sounds like the former should preclude the latter, but it doesn't.
