Interesting list. There's so many on it! I've visited a number of them, so far, and have suspended a number of them that are on the list, so far.
Is anyone else getting traffic from 216.106.86.232 ?
I will open a report with the ISP
=======================
I'm putting this under #FediBlock because I've noticed that since 12 PM EDT yesterday (30-Apr-2024), API requests coming in from 216.106.86.232 have been returning 500 errors constantly from my server. No other 500 errors were being returned.
I blocked the IP at the Cloudflare firewall and now the 500 errors have stopped. There were more than 93K 500 return codes in total until now!
I have no idea what the requests are, and it's too late at night to do more research, but I'm passing this along to other Admins as a warning and to see if anyone else is seeing similar behavior.

Here's what I see in Cloudflare for the last one hour before blocking the IP address. Notice all the requests returning 500 are from this single IP. There are no page views. It's all API requests. And 500 errors stopped after I blocked it.

I wondered about this, but the volume is about 2000/hour which isn't enough to really impact. And the calls it's making are pulling small amounts of data.
If this were meant to strain the server, I think they could have picked worse APIs. I feel someone is experimenting. Maybe not realizing they are being annoying?
We have suspended peertube.biz and comics.peertube.biz today. After receiving a report about one of their users, we took a look at the instances and found them hosting neonazi content all the way up to reuploads of Trump staffers' videos, as well as racist, queerphobic, and antifeminist content.
Admins, is there some reason you have decided to ignore reports about your Holocaust-denying users? Surely five days is enough time, and surely suspension is the only reasonable response.
あなたがあなたのホロコーストを否定するユーザーのレポートを無視することを決めた理由はありますか? 確かに5日間は応答を期待するのに十分な時間です。

I just noticed that all three of these accounts have the same message pinned about blocking Mastodon.social over censoring their Holocaust denial...
I am suddenly suspecting these are all the same person, using different accounts to evade blocks.
Could the admins of these servers please check for that? That would be an entirely different issue (block evasion), on top of the open and egregious Holocaust denial (hate speech) and the harassment of the Auschwitz Museum account. (harassment)
I recommend that admins #Fediblockbofh.social and queerfedi.net. The admin of both servers is, in this post, calling for ethnic cleansing against Jews in the [edit for clarity: historic] Palestine (called Israelis because of the supposed state most of them have the right to hold a passport from).
