Now that many people know that both Israel "verified" and Gaza "verified" were scam groups — which I have been saying all along with previously shared, growing evidence (photos, videos, documents, etc.) — I am a little annoyed that it took Russian data centers being bombed to convince many of you... but I digress.
Let's try this again... Now that some of you have finally come around to accepting that the scam groups calling themselves Israel "verified" and Gaza "verified" were indeed scam groups, it would be unfair to forever hold you on a block list. I believe in redemption, and I know people are capable of learning from their mistakes.
So, I am setting up a simple appeal process to be removed from the public block list. It is really simple.
Make one (1) public post admitting that Linux Is Best ( @Linux / @LinuxBSD ) — that's me — was right, and share a link to the block list. The post must remain online and public for a month. It must include the hashtags #GazaVerified #IsraelVerified #Scam #Spam #Fraud #Fediverse #Russia #Bots #LinuxIsBest. You're free to add more hashtags if you like.
This is something bad-faith actors are not likely to do. And the argument of purging everyone is illogical because there are scammers, spammers, and bad-faith individuals who should be blocked by myself and everyone else.
