If the users wanted the content it's accessible, I'm not sure what your issue is. Do you use mastadon or is this a feelings issue?

I am talking about when instance X defederates with instance Y, so the users on X cannot see content from Y, even if they took no part in the decision.

“and many do”

Yeah, that’s definitely citation needed.

If many people did not want to read other people’s controversial opinions, we wouldn"t be having this whole debate.

It seems like most of the people complaining about this aren't actually on Mastodon.
