I believe the idea behind different servers not meshing but federating, so they can have different focuses and different moderation stances.

Twitter could go permanently offline tomorrow as well, for all we know.

My neighbours are Jeowa's witnesses and they were not allowed to hang out with the other children when we brought Yu-Gi-Oh cards.

The monitoring app would look through the kid's phone in stead of the parent. It's the same thing.
