just go to an instance that doesn't federate with threads.net
You can also block the threads.net instance on the most recent lemmy version (0.19.0)
Decentralised and open source social network.

@abobla thank you for the update. Where can I block it? Can you help me with it?
I don't know how to do iton mastodon, but I know it's possible on lemmy 0.19 (lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, lemm.ee and others have this version).
I've never blocked an instance though.
edit: grammar
There are better arguments for not federating with Meta’s Threads, some of which can be found in [email protected]. Firstly, Threads isn’t going to be able to restrict speech on other instances, at least not in any direct fashion. And secondly and more importantly, an argument for “freedom of speech” without qualifications is either naive or disingenuous: Paradox of tolerance
Right, that and knowing the long history of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish (EEE) ought to be sufficient.
@davel what do you mean about "an argument without qualification"? And what has this to do with what meta is banning?
What’s threadlike mean?
Here's a question, forgive my ignorance. Is there a way to determine ownership of an instance beyond the name of the user account that owns it?
What if meta used their massive amounts of data storage to flood the fediverse with meta-owned instances, making it difficult or impossible to determine what they control and what they do not?
This is a concern I have also posed.
Furthermore, greed becomes a factor when you consider someone could sell their instance to a corporation with no one being any the wiser.
This will be an ongoing struggle until capitalism is ended. Westerners think China has a firewall to keep The Truth out, but mostly it’s to keep foreign capitalists out.
Okay.
