Not sure. I blocked and they added me to two other lists within last 24 hours.

I blocked but they are still adding to lists.

Welcome. They continue to add to lists. They added me to two more lists in 24 hours. Here is more info on this hateful person thanks to ClearSky.

Here is info courteous of ClearSky

Here is more info about this evil and harassing person. Thank you ClearSky for the info.

Unfortunately, that is not how it works. Yes @safety.bsky.app @bsky.app I am considering legal action unless @talesofmoderation.bsky.social is removed from platform immediately for the hate and harassment they are doing on this platform. Tales is hiding their records so Clear Sky can’t track them

I blocked but they continue to add me to lists. I get alerted via text when anybody adds me to a list.

@safety.bsky.app Person at @talesofmoderation.bsky.social is continuing to add people to very hateful lists and harassing them. This person is harassing me. Please remove from platform.
