Unlike a certain platform with an orange logo, we aren't keen on sheltering pedophiles. During your stay on Based Count, feel free to make as many wood chipper jokes as you deem necessary.

I think some alliance should be made to maintain a blacklist of VPNs known to spread harmful or otherwise dangerous materials, along with the infrastructure to automatically inform VPN's of why ranges have been banned.
Carpet banning all VPN's shouldn't be okay, as it prohibits people who justifiably need to maintain a level of anonymity access to the fediverse as a posting platform. Though TOR should be a valid endpoint since it is inherently slow.
It's a prickly set of problems to be sure, but political dissidents, whistleblowers, investigative journalists and otherwise politically compromised people of good intent should be protected.
