So I guess I'll explain the post for you, since it seems you do not understand the fediverse, either.
cyberplace.social federates with lea.pet but is not responsible for and cannot control the Microsoft parody account on lea.pet. Microsoft sent the notice to the wrong server. That's why Microsoft does not understand the fediverse or how federation works, and why the post is funny instead of dumb. Now you can laugh too! You're welcome!
So it's funny because the fediverse is so niche that no one designing automated copyright systems care about its odd and unique addressing system?
Yes, exactly! Now you get it!
An attempt at censorship failed because the censors didn't understand the system they were trying to censor. I think that's both funny and satisfying.
They didn't care about this system. It just got caught up in their news sources.
This isn't funny, it's just a thing that happened.
