Looking at the snap below, I'm getting worried about the integrity of this and other instances if all of these accounts start posting. There are many more like these. I counted at least 30 of them. For example if all of them try to post a 1MB image to a community in this instance. ๐
If there's no protection against the above scenario, preemptive defederation might be warranted. Maybe even with a public post on here that lists the defederated instances, where any owners of mistakenly swatted instances can appeal.

E: Someone's already doing an implementation.
yeah, I think I might preemptively block them. a different admin has been trying to contact them to get them aware, and had a list of some that had deleted the accounts and implemented captchas or whatever.
