Why did they defederated in the first place? Did something happens with another instance due to copyright problems? Or they just got scared for no reason?

To be clear they just blocked the piracy community, it isn't a full defederation from dbzer0

Lemmy.world has a rule against illegal content. This troll was trolling and got mad at dbzer0 for banning them. The troll then demanded the admins of lemmy.world defed from dbzer0 because piracy is illegal, and they blocked this and several other piracy communities at the troll's request.
