I'm using GNUSocial, and from my point of view, it's probably the most popular type of instance on the fediverse.

It's a GNU GPL V3 app. On the fediverse, there were debates whether a hardcoded block was within the software was right to do. If so, the case can be extrapolated to hardcoded blocks for other free software like kernels, firewalls, web browsers, etc.
