With the last court rule in Norway, Meta must ask your consent otherwise they can’t do anything. This is a huge issue for them on the fediverse. They must ask the consent of each European user what is nearly impossible. One solution is to filter were the instances are hosted. They don’t interact with the instance hosted in Europe. But, it doesn’t resolve the issue looking how the fediverse work. This is why Europe won’t see Thread.

To prevent, instances should migrate to be hosted in Europe. The second is to change how fediverse works. It’s fondamental to add options to ban some instances not just defederate. It’s the tactic of putting meta and instance that federate with them on the side.

This reminds me of the issue with some image content we spoke at the beginning of the week. I saw it like astroturfing. I would be surprised if this federation of Thread has a similar end.
