As part of the devs farewell message on their site, they have included malicious code to make each visitor sends 2,000 requests to the dbzer0 servers in an attempt to DDOS and take the instance offline.

    I’m somewhat ok with catering to a political filter in an instance/frontend, even if I prefer open inclusion.

    That isn’t what this was.

    He can claim it is all he wants, the list proves otherwise. As an example, the word “perchance” was in the list to hide content silently. Meaning this comment would be hidden in an unaltered tesseract front end, and the end user would have absolutely no idea, and no way to turn it off.
