What, they've hard coded a block on him/prevented his notes from surfacing on the platform?

Yeah apparently
I've been thinking about this, because I see the ongoing arguments over censorship here the last couple of days. The way I'm looking at it;
Any client is free to block anyone they like, for any reason they like, just as any relay operators or media service provider. That doesn't prevent someone from posting, or being seen, outside the reach of those blocks. There's nothing to stop someone creating their own client and posting to relays they can use, so really, any censorship as it stands is limited.
I limited certain things on Plume, such as the types of videos and images which appear in the 'other stuff' content reeels, in the logged out or logged in view, because I didnt want people's feeds being filled with certain adult content.
I don't see that as censorship, since I'm not preventing someone from posting or sharing or being seen by the network overall, but it seems some people here would call that censorship and would be very unhappy about it.
