Comment on PSA: the largest piracy community is blocked from lemmy.world

Fact is, they have good reasons to. Lemmy likely was threatened by a larger industry that could’ve thrown millions of dollars around in a court to get Lemmy taken down. The guys running Lemmy wouldn’t have enough money to win a lawsuit, the website could easily be taken down by a larger entity. When it comes to losing the community or blocking a couple communities, it’s an easy choice. Funny how the Lemmy admins are being blamed for this, when it’s a choice between a couple communities or the whole site.
