re: Announcing the Oliphant Social BlocklistS (plural!)
We provide block lists for users, and yes we have open federation but our users are not allowed to reboost or support racist content. As we have explained many times we openly federate at the request of and for the safety of our lbgtq community.
Not providing receipts is the issue yes, and no you arent asked to defend those receipts... the receipts you posted is fine, youd just need to include all the receipts and let the end user decide.
The receipts server i wrote does just thst... ANYONE CAN POST RECEIPTS, if a receiot is incomplete or left out then people can add to it. It ensures all the details are exposed.
Do you really not see a problem witb a server mai tsining a ban list, and receipts are objectively manipulated and important conte t left out in an attempt to sell effectively a lie (we explicitly state in our tos child porn gets a block).
No one is saying you needto defend tbe receipts, you just need to ensure the receipts content is inclusive of all the information and then at least others can decide.
Sorry but witbout receipts to evaluate it makes for not just a very bad blocklist but one that is harmful to the community.

And yes people might find your receipts invalid... isnt that the point? You want them be able to see your receipts are invalid and then tbey can add their own receipts
re: Announcing the Oliphant Social BlocklistS (plural!)
And for the record Im not trying to give you a hard time. I do think your trying to work towards something good. I just think it fell short and am trying to help fix those underlying issues. Which is what ive been trying to address for a while now.
I keep trying to push the conversation towards how to do reveipts in a way that would fix these problems, but you seem to keep glossing over the details of a receipts server which I have offered as a possible solution
