That is not censorship, my smooth friend. Nobody is censoring anybody in this context.

If you turn your tv off during a newscast are you censoring the broadcaster?

If my broadcaster blocks the news segments they don't want me to see, it is. That's what's happening here. Instance owners are taking it upon themselves to block content from users. Bullying pieces of shit are trying to strong arm instance owners into defederating.
