I think they do get marked as dead after the Bodis subdomain does not act as a Lemmy instance. But I was wondering if a large number of instances “waking up from the dead” and acting maliciously could cause some trouble. Or would such “undead” instances pose no more threat to the fediverse than the same number of newly created malicious instances ? I’m mainly thinking about stuff like being in a privileged position to DoS most instances at once, or impersonation of accounts that used to actually exist on these “undead” instances
