    Rule 1 is too vague.

    No illegal content, including sharing copyrighted material without the explicit permission of the owner(s).

    They can defederate with any instance with this rule. Why not just say “because we want to”?

      Unless those communities were sharing links to pirated content. If it was just talk about piracy and piracy news then I don’t think that’s a good reason to defederate.

        No illegal content

        Illegal in which country? Copyright infringement isn’t illegal in my country for example, except for severe cases where you’re profiting off of it. If we have to cater to all countries’ laws we might as well ban music as well since it’s illegal in Afghanistan.
