See, that's the nice thing about a federated solution. I can use my personal instance that federates with Mata and you can use one that doesn't and we can both be happy and still talk to each other. Being able to pick an instance that suits your preferences is the biggest selling point of the fediverse.
I think I understand what you're trying to do here, Meta connecting to the fediverse and being blocked from a bunch of instances would be confusing to new users. For instance, if you're following a bunch of people at Instagram and Facebook and bring over those people to Threads, if they can't see everyone because they're blocked, that would be bad for meta. I say keep them out and the more instances that block meta, the better.
