@bri7 ah, good point! I'm guessing that's the reason for the block activity, assuming well-intentioned handling on the other server side?
This just made me realize that even follower-only posts basically rely on the receiving server Doing The Right Thing™ (a malicious server could still show a received follower-only post to anyone).
Basically anything in ActivityPub depends on the good faith of the server software (and admins)?

@bri7 (I'm not even getting into the «mentioned people» mess, because I ascribe that to Mastodon's lack of separation of a To: field, rather than a protocol issue)
