For example:
- bots everywhere
- astroturfing
- repost bots being sold to spread propaganda
- etc.

I’m imagining a scenario where the mods of a semi-popular Instance X do a bad job and let a bunch of spam bots join. Other instances block Instance X, but X’s genuine users are the collateral damage. Hopefully moving accounts will be much easier by then…. but then the spammers might move too….
