If they add user-level defed, I’d be pretty on board with defederation being used for stuff like bot farms.
As it stands, with the current lack of user-level defed-- defederating is a server/user-whitelist, server-blacklist function.
Ideally I think it should be a server/user-whitelist, user-blacklist function, where a server-blacklist is reserved for botfarms/illegal content.

more ideally would be as many levels of granular control as possable for users and their clients.
However Servers ghould get
- whitelist/blacklist of users
- blacklist/whitelist of communities (prevents blocking servers for just their groups)
- blacklist/whitelist of servers
- server federation
The point is to blacklist as specific as needed, EX: dont block lemmy dot Marxist Lennonists just its extremist communities (ml admins have a communism chinaphile problem)
