blocks rescinded

Mastodon apparently does not log a time-stamp or admin name for domain blocks. We therefore have to keep a manual log if we want that information recorded in a manageable way.

• 2020-07-22 inex.rocks: block record says only "defending fascism"
• 2019-12-30 (post): After discussion among the admin team, we're removing silence from social.tchncs.de because it was hindering interaction in a useful thread, and nobody on the admin team knows/remembers why it was originally silenced.

legacy blocks

The live list of active blocks is here (scroll down), but that doesn't give a history or any discussion of reasoning. The list here includes annotations and history, where available.

• fedichive.tk = blocked for hostile data-collection, hostile interactions [1][2][3]([4])
• socialnetwork.ninja - blocked 2019-04-23 because information indicated the instance is run by a police officer
• bsd.moe
• Our block list as of 2018-10-11 (I wish there was a way to export this in a better format; I had to do a lot of manual tidying):
