For example:
- bots everywhere
- astroturfing
- repost bots being sold to spread propaganda

Yep it’s a huge issue, and the inverse case where instance Y’s admins take a bung from some product manufacturer or agenda lobby and overnight the content moderation policy changes. There’s no point getting comfy with your account right now until user migration is lightweight, frictionless and doable after a ban, to reduce the cost to a user of a changing relationship with the admins of an instance.
