The piracy instance was actually moved to a free-speech friendly host recently to avoid take downs. But because of how federation works, contents are actually mirrored in federated instance so I understand if lemmy.world decided to block the community to avoid potential legal hassle. At least they aren’t outright defederating with the instance.
Would it have to be hosted in a matter similar to VPNs/some mail clients and others?
LMK if anyone knows more, thank you!
Likely a jurisdiction issue moreso anything else.
It’s also hard to keep a hosting location wholly confidential.
Thanks for the reply!
