The largest piracy community is hosted over at !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
lemmy.world has blocked it. It appears to have also blocked !piracy@lemmy.ml.
If this is a problem for you, I’d suggest migrating accounts using LASIM to an instance that doesn’t block it (such as lemm.ee).
edit:
An official announcement has been made:
Illegal in which country? Copyright infringement isn’t illegal in my country for example, except for severe cases where you’re profiting off of it. If we have to cater to all countries’ laws we might as well ban music as well since it’s illegal in Afghanistan.
The catch is it is illegal in the USA. The laws of the USA do not stop at their borders and they have successfully prosecuted people abroad for violating US copyright/trademark law.
Im not sure the admins need to fear Afghanistan but the US courts will absolutely pursue claims.

Also ban haram Posting because it’s illegal in some random Muslim country.
