https://privacy.thenexus.today/blocklists-in-the-fediverse/

Part 2 of "Golden opportunities for the fediverse -- and whatever comes next"

This installment has five sections:

• Blocklists potentially centralize power -- although can also counter other power-centralizing tendencies

• Today's fediverse relies on instance blocking and blocklists

• Steps towards better blocklists
