Bur what about servers that are not based in the UK? They are not officiallly doing business there, they just happen to be accessible from there. And with Fediverse, you can specifically choose a server that suits your jurisdiction needs.
that just depends on how comfortable the instance owner is, if i was hosting I’d ip block the UK
There’s already a few websites that block the uk (lemmy.zip is a good example, lobste.rs plans to block the uk)
I am IP-blocked by a lot of things. At some point a large percentage of population just gets used to the fact that VPNs/proxies are now just a mandatory part of the internet usage.
