Take #wikileaks for example. If you don't follow @wikileaks through #socialcontrolmedia (beholden/controlled by US Empire), this is all you get: https://wikileaks.org/-News-.html zero updates this year! Nada.

One reason it's a Bad Idea(R) to have #socialcontrolmedia accounts for a 'controversial' site is that it encourages people to 'follow' through third parties rather than directly, e.g. RSS feeds. So it leaves you at the mercy of some middlemen, restricts free speech (self-censored/deplatformed).

#techrights by contrast never did #socialcontrolmedia so it cannot be banned from anything. I mean, sure, links to Techrights can be blocked and #EPO management blocked access to the site, but the scope is very limited, damage contained
