# Brew Server Blocklist

Friendica publishes the server wide blocklists for other servers in the
fediverse. This script will collect the blocklists of servers of your
choice and create a merged blocklist from them that you can then import
into your own Friendica server.

To make certain that you don't block just any instance in the fediverse
because $somebody has it on their blocklist you assign _trustlevels_ to
the correctnes of the blocklists of the other servers. Only when a server
is blocked with a total trustlevel that is above a confidence level, it
will be added to resulting blocklist automatically. Otherwise the user
will be ask if they want to add a node to their blocklist or not.

The entries of your own servers blocklist will always gain enough trust
so that they are added on the final blocklist again.
