Garbage previously addressed.
A TOS is not some serious contract. It's a notice. 'By using this site, you agree to...' and any site has carte blanche to put whatever they want, to decide they don't want you using that site. To whatever extent you're 'using' LW by being on a federated instance, LW has rescinded that, for this user. Whoop de shit. His local account is fine, other instances don't care.
You will inevitably catch hands from one cagey instance or other for completely stupid reasons. Or at least from crank moderators, drunk off the tiniest mote of power. That's all that's happening here.
Citing the TOS linked at the bottom instead of the rules in the sidebar makes no difference.
