Febiblock is a useful thing that happens on other Fediverse social in which instance admins share their worries about users or instances. After a discussion where everyone shares their knowledge about the problem, admins decide if that instace/user must be blocked or not.
It could be very useful for the recent bot spamming. Since maybe the spam could be repeated on multiple instances, by sharing the emails/usernames those bots were registering with, admins could block them more easily.

So basically centralized cenzorship for decentralized Fediverse?
Well notbexactly. Just a faster way to stop spam. Block must be motivated of course, and each instance decides per se
Going through suggested lists I can count the instances that have the reason “spam” on my fingers, doesn’t seem to be actually useful (or intended to be) against spam
