And/or (i suspect this is more likely) it will threaten to do so, and mastodon.social/.online will update their TOS to fix the problem identified in the bug report. Either way it's a win for federation, in that migration is relatively painless for the user..

I'm also really appreciating the speed and depth of the response to this from the community (e.g. all the comments on the bug report). It's cool to see!

edit: Also, Eugene's response is reasonable and levelheaded - seems like there will be some TOS improvements eventually.
