He may well get someone killed, but he won't be defunding anyone according to what @jaykuo@universeodon.com wrote in his article today:

I'm not in the UK, but I am pretty certain I am unwittingly adding to their profits.
According to this, they have brands in Norway that include Hellmanns, Knorr, Maizena, Maille and The Vegetarian Butcher.
https://www.unileverfoodsolutions.no/om-oss.html
Wikipedia lists these brands in Norway:
Dove, Axe, Vaseline, Neutral, Domestos, Knorr, Lipton, Carte d'Or, Maizena, Maille, Slotts og Ben & Jerry's
https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unilever
Now to figure out what I can use instead of Maizena!

Unilever owns a giant pile of companies and brands.
Is there a graphic showing which companies it owns and another showing all the brands it owns?
It would be so much easier to boycott if we, the consumers, knew what we can boycot/not buy.

I agree. It will be interesting to see where the line goes between letting individual users block/mute and where there will be a call for separate servers, so that users don't have to block each eg. porn poster individually.
On FB, admins can put users on suspension, giving them a chance to straighten out - and then they can block them from their group/page. Something similar should be doable here.

I got an in-your-face porn picture in my federated feed the other day. Innocent server - very not innocent picture. I would definitely like it if I could block that server that allow porn, to be honest.
I guess I am asking what is bad enough for enough people that it should be on separate servers. i would say it should be something (bad?) people DO on here, not what people ARE. If you do post porn, do harass/bully, do post fake news - those are my suggestions.

Some things only trigger a few - snakes or swearing. Those few of us that don't want to see that stuff can block the user. I hope that Mastodon admins have a system where the more a user gets muted and/or blocked, the closer a look they take at that user.
Bullying is a whole other thing and should be reported, then blocked/muted. I would hope that the admins here agree that bullying is out. Let the bullies go back to Birdville or Trump Social.

Most people have a negative response to being disrepected and bullied. Bullies do that to anyone they can get to - for size, race, handicaps, interests or just "because". Bullying behaviour by any user should not be tolerated by any confederated server. It brings no good.
I would think(hope!) that something like that would be in the Fediverse Charter.

Why does it have to be the harassed that have to seek a haven? This is a new WORLDWIDE space. Wouldn't it be a much better space if those that want to harass or be harassed are the ones that have to go find somewhere else to do it than on servers where everyone else manages to get along?
