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.

From my understanding the software is able to be decentralized but from what I see most people don't. They're blocking it on their instance. So theoretically two different bluesky instances can share between each other but the bsky.app won't.

You can share about icepick on Bluesky, what is being blocked is clicking the link (because it goes through their redirect).

Also their is not really instances on Bluesky, the decentralisation is more granular.
