Block? No.
Ask public law institutions to not use it. Maybe.

This is all they have to do
I'm glad they at least name mastodon and not bluesky as an alternative.
Whats wrong with bluesky? Ive been using it fornthe past week and its definitely more intuitive and accessible for the average joe than Mastodon.
I can't run my own bluesky instance. Its literaly the same problem as X

Eh, BlueSky seems to be actually gaining some traction now, enough so that celebs and brands are jumping ship, so maybe just give it a few months and let it rot.
Bsky has 20 million users, which is great, basically doubled in a month, but twitter has hundreds of millions of users. We talking a different order of magnitude.
Curves being what they are, these numbers don’t mean much. Yes twitter has more users but if bsky crosses some threshold, their user count can begin to catch up quickly.

Petition calls to ban world hunger
They didn't ban it already? DOn't they have a filter list and they tell isps to block certain sites?
Here quite a few of the popular social media are banned. They're still popular but now every schoolkid, housewife and grandpa knows what a VPN is. Every time I hear such news, I am afraid of crackdowns on censorship evasion in those places too...
Does the article say anything about censorship? Usually bans like this are financial. So X offices would close in the EU and bank accounts seized and they wouldn't be allowed to conduct business (eg with advertisers) in the EEA

Petition calls to ban war
Site doesn't load. I trust they're talking about banning it financially, not with a firewall, right?
European politicians use X and its an assets for their governments. I doubt they are going to do much about it.
