I think in the case of an instance being spammed with csa material we are allowed to use all the sticks at our disposal - and in this case it was actually the only stick we had. And once we got in touch with TedVDB we refederated.

It's funny that this post on feddit.nl has 20 upvotes. It doesn't catch up once the federation starts again. I thought it would tbh
