My comments are littered with folks asking "why is it a problem if your blocklist is public on Bluesky?"

@vkc and that's also why #ChatControl is just abysmally and morally wrong.
If the government (or any one entity with sufficient power over our every day life) has access to your social connections and messages you can be sure it'll only be a matter of time before they will selectively restrict minorities...... and everyone else whose opinions and actions they dislike.
Chatcontrol is right out of the authoritarian playbook 101 and must be stopped.

@vkc As a European I would 'wear' such public blocks as a badge of honour, but I am not on bluesky.
@ThePolishDispatch This. I subscribed to several block lists against democracy-destroying people, and even had no idea that ICE was accepted. But I have the privilege to live in Europe.
On the other hand: they could abuse blocklists if only some protesters were subscribed. If massed would do it ...

I'm not going to talk about Bluesky anymore for a bit, but I know folks are coming back here after hanging out there for a while, and I want to encourage Fedi users not to gloat, not to be jerks about it.
And if you're just (re)joining us on Fedi, like all affinity groups, you're going to run into enthusiasts who are gloating, but I promise most of us are just happy you're here and want to help make this place awesome for you.
@vkc
There's a very simple solution for those who really want or need to remain connected to the #activitypub and the #atproto at the same time. That's called #Wafrn, https://wafrn.net/. And you know exactly what's visible on both protocols if you read carefully the documentation. -
