Limitations of “Oh no! Have you tried changing instances?”
- Did you know that when you migrate instances you lose your posting history?
-Did you know that migrating instances is not as simple as “create account on new instance, point old account to new account”?
- Did you know that changing instances does not necessarily address the root cause of the harassment? In other words, harassers may and will try to follow targets to new instances?
