Its really our only rule WRT federation. If a user asks to opt-out of a conversation then a user must honor it.

Spinster as a whole didnt honor that rule, and even after over 24 hours of being muted the harassment continued. Thus they got a silence, and like i said it was well deserved.

Because the hope was that in knowing that clair was acting illegal (contrary to the CAN-SPAM) act, and others on their server they may wish to respond accordingly.

Our lawyer asked us to disengage and i asked our lawyer if they could contact alex and help them with their ToS if Alex wished to help them come in compliance with the law.

I made this very clear in my follow up message.

@alex @p @cowanon

@freemo @alex @p @cowanon That's fair enough, I suppose.

But why mention lawyers? Why not just silence the server instance-wide and be done with it?

@realcaseyrollins

As we discussed at the time, I could not have a mute on an entire server since I'm an administrator. I have to evaluate and rule on accusations made and to do that I have to be able to view threads and potential harassment.

So I muted the whole server personally for 24 hours to let it die down but as a rule neither me nor the other moderators can keep any server on personal mute indefinately.

@alex @p @cowanon

@alex

Please stop mis representing the situation. clair opened several dozen threads once I muted hers and got ddozens of people from your server to also continue the harassment once It was asked to be left alone.

It constituted spam in every respect, it wasnt a single user. Even after a personal mute on your server for over 24 hours ocne I unmuted the server the harassment was continuing. Which ultimately led to your whole server being defederated.

@freemo @alex @p @cowanon Wait wait you removed the block? Why? Clearly its content triggers you.

If you get notifications from an instance you * unmuted *...I am afraid that's on you. Right? Unblocking an instance basically says "wassup bios, I'm down to interact with y'all now"

@freemo
I mean, your reaction was pretty uncalled for, you could've muted the thread if that lady was bothering you.

Plus, thinking you were moving forward with legal action wasn't a "misunderstanding" at all.

This situation just wasn't handled very well.
@alex @p @cowanon

I come here to argue over minute details that are lost in translation from text that you would never bother saying to me in a real life conversation. Some people really just aren't practical on the internet and it's insanely frustrating.

Let's not forget the time that @freemo, God among men, silenced the Spinster server and then threatened to sue me personally because an intersex woman disagreed with him about intersex issues.

Seems like antagonizing people on the Fediverse and making legal threats is a recurring issue with Freemo.

@realcaseyrollins @p @cowanon

@alex @freemo @p @cowanon I did remember that one, lol.

I'm just surprised because this is a side I've never seen of him. Apart from calling me a bigot for my "muh chromosomes" post, he's been pretty cordial with me and stood by me in the face of opposition, at the risk of the reputation of , despite the fact that we disagree on quite a lot of issues.
