Bluesky tells WIRED it blocked links to a leaked archive of information on 41,000 ICE, CBP, and other DHS workers because it contains people’s contact information, shared without their authorization.

Well bluesky is made of different parts (AppView, PDS, …) that almost all have alternatives, it's decentralised but in a different way, and better than ActivityPub imho.

But the fact is that the vast majority of users still use the default parts made by Bluesky.

What's weird is that this censorship is not made with Bluesky's moderation and I can see the posts and open the link just fine. I'm trying with the default app, AppView and moderation but an alternative PDS. But I don't see how a PDS is supposed to change that, maybe it's because I don't have a US IP?
