What would happen if ICE wanted to join the Fediverse? Most instances probably wouldn’t host that account, but some would. The account would be broadly blocked at both individual and instance levels, and some instances would probably defederate the hosting instance. Some folks would migrate between instances based on these choices. All this, I think, would be a good outcome?

@timbray Odds on they'd run their own instance on the theory that nobody can kick them off it if they control it.

@tknarr @timbray ~Pravda~ *Truth Social* is essentially at a technical level a Mastodon instance with federation turned off. If they ever did turn it on, I would very much hope that my instance and about every other instance I interact with would block it.
