This is censorship manifest!
I think most people would have been fine with like a ublock style collection blocklists they could enable or disable and subscribe to, the problem was hiding it and doing it unilaterally.
Putting in a DDOS tool is just another signal this person isn’t mature enough to be trusted with your computer.
Yes, I believe Bluesky does exactly that - custom blocklists you can subscribe to. It would actually be a very useful feature.
What is the charge, causing a DDOS? A succulent Chinese DDOS?
