They are a lemmy instance dedicated to the facilitation of piracy, and copyright infringement in general which is illegal. It is by nature in violation of the rules of your instance which prohibit illegal content, therefore it is imperative that you defederate it in accordance with your policies.

They're literally facilitating the sharing of illegal torrents and also links to copyrighted rom files. That's not discussion that's directly enabling piracy which is against Lemmy.world's rules

  1. No illegal content, including sharing copyrighted material without the explicit permission of the owner(s).

Torrenting to download is legal in my country.

Good for you, still illegal in good old America, and that's all that matters here. Why not host your own lemmy instance and federate with them then.

Why not host your own lemmy instance and defederate with them then?

Dumbass

If I hosted my own I certainly would, I would never federate with Instances which host of facilitate illegal content.

However this isn't about my instance or your instance, it's about an Instance who's primary goal violates the rules and guidelines of the lemmy.world server, by virtue of being an Instance dedicated to Piracy. It's not about disliking them, it's about what is right, and illegal activity isn't right or acceptable. Also it's literally in their rules, if lemmy.world didn't care or have rule 1 I wouldn't even bother here.

  1. No illegal content, including sharing copyrighted material without the explicit permission of the owner(s).

It's literally right there, lemmy.dbzer0.com violates that by being a hub for piracy.

So go host your own instance.

Considering your account was created 3 hours ago, and the content you’ve posted so far, nothing of value will be lost.

Thanks for the entertainment.

I think you missed the whole point of this, or you're misrepresenting on purpose. It's literally an instance that violates their rules, you're all conviently ignoring that fact because you don't want to see them defederated.

I’ve explained in a variety of ways how torrent files are not inherently illegal, nor is discussion of piracy.

I’ve accurately countered every poorly conceived point you’ve tried to make, and your response has been to:

  • call me a “dirty pirate” (lol)
  • insinuate my point is null because the account I’m posting from isn’t hosted on lemmy.world (neither is yours)
  • accuse me of misrepresentation

Take the loss, shut up, move on. You aren’t entertaining anymore.

I’ll make this easy for everyone - you’re blocked, and I’ll sprinkle in a nice report to the lemm.ee admins, as I’m sure they will be curious to know why a 3 hour old account is trying in bad faith to dictate federation rules on a server they aren’t a member of.

Welcome to the fediverse.

No one's misrepresenting, you're just an idiot.

[-] moitoi@feddit.de 21 points 1 year ago

My argument is to not pretend it's illegal when it's not worldwide. What you write is American defaulting.

Maybe don't host in the US or in a similar juridiction. The same argument as self hosting.

[-] Bungiefan_ak@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Well I am an American and I support American values, so as far as I'm concerned it's wrong and illegal.

Also isn't lemmy.world in America? Pretty sure it is since they did remove two of their communites for this very reason:
