A little-advertised bridge just appeared between the Fediverse and Twitter founder Dorsey's new social network. It intends to bridge accounts that don't opt out.

Doing this as opt out is a pretty immoral thing to do. Also unclear how legal opt-out bridges are in some countries. The bridge is using these domains:

snarfed.org
brid.gy

Server admins may want to defederate these to prevent their members being bridged without their knowledge or permission.

snarfed.org is literally just the creator's website. Why block that on top of bridgy? (Also the creator specified that to block bluesky bridging you should block bsky.brid.gy, not the top domain which hosts a different service entirely) Seems unnecessary if the intention is just to block the Bluesky bridge. Unless there's some proof that the domain is also being used to run the service somehow? Please at least get that right, so that those who want to block the Bluesky bridge can just do that without unintentionally blocking other things. Unless I'm missing the point somewhere?

One thing that you should learn about homegrown and feditips is that misrepresentation of information is something that they have done a lot and continue to do. Honestly in my opinion it's extremely unprofessional, maybe not the greatest idea to follow their advice.

@Draconic_NEO @minneyar Hmm yeah I'm starting to get the vibe. Admittedly I've never really heard of those until today. I suppose all that can be done is attempting to clarify the truth, which is what I hoped to do in my original reply.
