I think I found the domain name of #Threads, #Meta's new #Fedi-enabled service, also codenamed #Project92, #P92, and #Barcelona.
URL: https://threads.net
IPv4: 157.240.22.63
IPv6: 2a03:2880:f231:c5:face:b00c:0:43fe (note "face:b00c")
Looking up threads.net returns #Instagram's logo, the title "Barcelona" and "this page isn't available" (probably because it's not open yet).
I'd recommend every #MastoAdmin #FediAdmin in the #FediPact to #FediBlock them before they go live on the #Fediverse!

in reply to MOULE • • •Here's how to #FediBlock threads.net on #Mastodon 4.1.0 and above (I'm unsure about how to do this on other #Fediverse #servers, sorry:
FOR USERS:
1. Create a txt document
2. Type "threads.net" (without quote marks)
3. Save as "blocked_domains.csv"
4. On Mastodon, go to Preferences > Import and Export > Import.
5. For input type select "Domain blocking list".
6. Upload blocked_domains.csv.
7. Click "Merge" so threads.net is added to your block list. Do NOT click "Overwrite"!
8. Click "Upload"!

in reply to MOULE • • •If you're an admin using Mastodon 4.0.2 or below, the menu described before won't exist and you will need to access your Mastodon server's #PostgreSQL #production #database (assuming you're using PostgreSQL) and paste the following #SQL code to block threads.net:
INSERT INTO domain_blocks (domain, created_at, updated_at, severity, reject_media, reject_reports) VALUES ('threads.net', now(), now(), 1, 't', 't');

in reply to MOULE • • •Here's the #iptables and #ip6tables commands to block #IPv4 and #IPv6 packets directed to/from threads.net:
iptables -A INPUT -s 157.240.22.63 -j DROP
iptables -A OUTPUT -s 157.240.22.63 -j DROP
ip6tables -A INPUT -s 2a03:2880:f231:c5:face:b00c:0:43fe -j DROP
ip6tables -A OUTPUT -s 2a03:2880:f231:c5:face:b00c:0:43fe -j DROP
@revengeday has a list of 2000+ domains owned by Facebook / Meta you can save as "blocked_domains.csv" and import as a blocking list in your server: https://datakra.sh/assets/lizard.txt
