Heads up #fediadmins. There is a Mastodon MCP server now. This is going to make it a lot easier for the techbros to get LLM based bots on Fedi.

We will continue to suspend LLM based bots that we discover and will defederate from instances if/when it becomes a moderation problem on them.

Attached: 1 image 🐘🤖 A new open-source project has been created: mastodon-mcp-server MCP server written in Python, which allows AI assistants (Claude, Copilot and other tools supporting the Model Context Protocol) to directly communicate with Mastodon instances - read the timeline, write posts, follow accounts and much more. 🏠 Homepage: https://github.com/VitexSoftware/mastodon-mcp-server 📦 Installation (Debian 13 / Ubuntu 24+): apt install mastodon-mcp-server or via pip: pip install mastodon-mcp-server #MCP #Mastodon #Python #OpenSource #AI #Fediverse #Debian

BMorePunk has suspended mastodon.cloud after a review of our connections to that instance.

No accounts on BMorePunk followed accounts on Mastodon.cloud or vice versa. A review of stored accounts showed mostly spam accounts. The instance was already limited due to previous advisories from IFTAS.

If you know anyone on Mastodon.cloud please tell them to switch to another moderated and maintained instance.

⚠️ More scam posts are spreading lies! (see attached screenshot below)

To set the record straight:
- You do not need to verify on Mastodon
- No legitimate Mastodon admin will ever demand you verify
- No legitimate Mastodon admin will ever ask for your bank card details
- There are no monetisation features on Mastodon
- There are no extra features for verified accounts on Mastodon

If you see a scam post, click ⋯ on the scam post, then "Report", and select the option to forward the report too.

We have defederated from all hf.spaces instances as they appear to be hosted by Hugging Face and are being used to create fake Gazan accounts to spam users with. We are defederating the entire domain before it is used to create more LLM powered spam.

@steter Tagging this with #Fediblock and #FediAdmin to raise awareness for other admins.

This post is a reply to a post about people impersonating Mastodon developers/admins.

This one depends a lot on your instances policies. But linked is an LLM powered bot account.

I want to expand on the age-verification working group plan, to avoid confusion. The goal is to create an informal group of experts in the areas of law, privacy, trust & safety, and technology. Their agenda is explicitly not to _implement_ age verification/assurance, neither in the Mastodon software nor in our own servers. The group will assess various risks for the user base, the server admins, and the project and analyse it from different perspectives to provide a balanced recommendation.

Concerned about your privacy online? Not sure what is safe to post or not? Want to learn how to stay private on Mastodon?

Why don't you take a look at the Mastodon Opsec Zine from F-91W Distro?

@revoluciana @reverendstanley Looks like unsuspending a domain doesn't leave any lasting damage if done within 30 days.

I have left the hashtag attached to my edited post in case anyone else saw it. I have also added a note to the domain in our moderation panel linking to the Wikipedia article.

I'll reach out to Rev. Onan separately.

@revoluciana @reverendstanley Thank you for saying something. I am going to be honest, I am not entirely sure yet what the best way to proceed is.

But certainly this is a lesson in due diligence.
