The largest piracy community is hosted over at !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

lemmy.world has blocked it. It appears to have also blocked !piracy@lemmy.ml.

If this is a problem for you, I'd suggest migrating accounts using LASIM to an instance that doesn't block it (such as lemm.ee).

Scared of legal actions against them.

I could respect it if they owned that and said "we are covering the admin team's butts." Instead, they say this is to protect users. Laughable.

They said more than just the users lol. Why make shit up?

They said it’s to protect the instance, the admins, and the users specifically because of potential lawsuits and legal issues.
