#FediNuke

I updated my blocklists article to say something similar (diff).

I already include canary domains and document which ones they are to signal when staff imports a list without reading the docs, but I think a proper disclosure for use without review is still necessary. I document how to use the lists with review.

As always: none of this applies to small and private, or single-user instances.

I have added parcero.casa to FediNuke. sorry for the delay.

See receipts

Sorry for being less active lately; I should have used the override process earlier. It is at consensus. By the time I added it, the domain stopped resolving. It replaced the old domain on FediNuke. If it stays down, I will eventually remove it altogether.

contemplating making my tier-0 blocklist less easy to import but keeping FediNuke importable. now’s your chance to change my mind before i do that. also clarified some FediNuke criteria in my docs: one of it’s shortcomings is that entries must require minimal context, so it’s as clear-cut as possible. as always, it was never meant to be comprehensive.

FediNuke transparency update:

• Added drinkanddrive.africa. See receipts on my receipt archive.
• Removed three dead domains (catgirl.life, vtuberfan.social, natehiggers.online). They have no DNS records, or redirect to a subdomain with no DNS records. Will properly comb through for dead domains at some point later.

Got two blocklist updates today, and a non-update with private visibility. First, a FediNuke/tier0.csv transparency update:

I override-added an instance to FediNuke using my documented override process: caekis.love.

Was already near consensus, and the admin was already in receipts for the gleasonator.com FediNuke entry.

See the many receipts for caekis.love in my receipt archive. The severity was enough to warrant inclusion.

Moreover, I’ve had an increase in requests to add entries to shared blocklists. I normally don’t take requests for shared lists except in extreme situations, and in those cases I only do overrides as part of the process documented in the article. If I think an override is controversial, I ask a couple sources most likely to disagree; if multiple sources are opposed to adding an entry that overrides consensus, I don’t.

The point of FediNuke is to show what basically everyone agrees should be blocked, and that leaves out a lot of awful (and less-awful) entries. The goal isn’t to make a blocklist that’s enough; it’s to make a blocklist whose entries you probably agree with. As the docs say, this list is not comprehensive. It’s a huge compromise. There’s a reason why our blocklist isn’t just FediNuke; FediNuke is a list to compare other lists to, or a starting point for blocklist-skeptics. If you choose to trust FediNuke (and it’s fine if you don’t; I’m not “making” anybody use it on principle), then your list should eventually be a superset of what you import from it.

#FediNuke

FediNuke/tier0.csv transparency update:

Added some new bias sources to replace a removed one, and increased the consensus requirement. This caused some removals.

No new instances added to FediNuke. Two dead instances removed:

• noagendasocial.nl
• theapex.social

Removed 16 dead instances from my larger tier0.csv list. After these changes, another 9 instances failed to meet the consensus requirement for inclusion without overrides. I used my override process to add back 5 that were of sufficient severity. See more about my override process: I can force-add instances that almost have the minimum consensus requirement, with minimal overhead.

#FediNuke blocklist transparency update:

Someone is making accounts on multiple instances, usually with names like...
- FuckPoon
- FuckPooners
...with the specific purpose of threatening, harassing, and doxing, mainly targeting transgender / queer users. This is not the first I have heard, nor the only instances I have heard of being hit with this.

All #Moderation / #Moderators / #FediMods / #Admin / #Admins / #FediAdmin / #Staff / #Fedistaff should be on the lookout for new users with those account names, and should likely ban on sight.

#FediBlock / #FediNuke tag for good measure: keep an eye out for them.

I will update this post if I see more information about who it is.

For the non-staff bystanders looking at this, I want to point out, this happens on every social network, but the difference is here, you can see staff going on mass alert over it.

turturea.online

Seems to be a single user instance, unsure because they are clearly rules, but the admin, luciferian, has been trying to figure out who is making reports and publicly posting their accounts, even tagging one of them out right.

This is a clear case of harassment and violation of all good faith standards, warranting an immediate block on our end.

This is on top of the fact that luciferian was getting reported for a bunch of vaguely racist/sexist bad takes, which he apparently thinks were "fun", so I'm going to go ahead and assume he's a #troll.

Some #FediBlock entries:

shortstacksran.ch: run by admin of needs.vodka and the former tnd.lol, continuation of squid.kids and shortstackran.ch. (note the extra “s” this time).

• See quoted post for a previous FediBlock post against squid.kids citing harassment.
• On shortstacksran.ch: admin posts extremely racist use of slurs, and racist antisemitism.
• On needs.vodka: admin posts ethno-fascist harassment, antisemitism. Supports racist, misogynistic, violent grooming.

social.immibis.com: sealioning, block-evasion, generally being a huge asshole. Less major than the prior entry.

• Comparing Jews to Nazis for identifying sealioning tactics, and loudly blocking anyone who points out their white fragility.
• Then gets butthurt about being blocked for it, resolving to block-evade instead.
• It’s not the first time; the admin did the same thing by repeatedly sealioning after being asked to stop.

Blocklist updates:

Short Stacks Ranch has been added to my #FediNuke and my tier-0 blocklists, as it’s the successor to an older FediNuke entry (squid.kids) and run by the admin of another FediNuke entry (needs.vodka). Documentation and receipts.
