Description
Add support for a federation_domain_blacklist setting, complementing the existing federation_domain_whitelist.
Some homeservers are controlled by CSAM distributors or malicious actors. To prevent federation with such domains, administrators should be able to explicitly blacklist them, regardless of general federation behavior.
