@steter Tagging this with #Fediblock and #FediAdmin to raise awareness for other admins.

This post is a reply to a post about people impersonating Mastodon developers/admins.

I want to expand on the age-verification working group plan, to avoid confusion. The goal is to create an informal group of experts in the areas of law, privacy, trust & safety, and technology. Their agenda is explicitly not to _implement_ age verification/assurance, neither in the Mastodon software nor in our own servers. The group will assess various risks for the user base, the server admins, and the project and analyse it from different perspectives to provide a balanced recommendation.

Concerned about your privacy online? Not sure what is safe to post or not? Want to learn how to stay private on Mastodon?

Why don't you take a look at the Mastodon Opsec Zine from F-91W Distro?

@revoluciana @reverendstanley Looks like unsuspending a domain doesn't leave any lasting damage if done within 30 days.

I have left the hashtag attached to my edited post in case anyone else saw it. I have also added a note to the domain in our moderation panel linking to the Wikipedia article.

I'll reach out to Rev. Onan separately.

@revoluciana @reverendstanley Thank you for saying something. I am going to be honest, I am not entirely sure yet what the best way to proceed is.

But certainly this is a lesson in due diligence.

@ShredderFeeder Nazis punks go the fuck home.

We are also strongly recommending defederation.

We have no tolerance for bullshit and will aggressive defederate from instances that fuck around.
