"Images of historically significant military achievements or personnel, such as the Tuskegee Airmen and the first female Marine Corps infantry graduates, have been flagged for removal."
We don't have email instances, and email providers similarly block un-desired content, but there's not a big fuss about missing out on specific types of spam. Lol.
Similarly Internet service providers actually also block big blocks of malware providing domains, and accidentally sometimes block some great piracy resources. People who care learn to use a VPN or switch providers. Everyone else doesn't have to think about it.
I'll argue that The Fediverse also carries extremely similar switching cost as an email or Internet provider. For an average user, "Let folks you care to inform know where you moved, and maybe copy over some favorite bookmarks."
Sure, different providers do try to bring different lenses on the same federated content, but most people aren't served well by thinking about it on day one.

And it'll likely go beyond embarrassment, well into national security, before all the long term damage is fully counted.
We're collectively breaking even at best, and getting our asses handed to us, at worst, and they're firing people to save a nickel.
This is a textbook case of penny smart being dollar stupid.
All swearwords, all the time. Generally puns on the servers purpose.
