Febiblock is a useful thing that happens on other Fediverse social in which instance admins share their worries about users or instances. After a discussion where everyone shares their knowledge about the problem, admins decide if that instace/user must be blocked or not.

It could be very useful for the recent bot spamming. Since maybe the spam could be repeated on multiple instances, by sharing the emails/usernames those bots were registering with, admins could block them more easily.

So basically centralized cenzorship for decentralized Fediverse?

Well notbexactly. Just a faster way to stop spam. Block must be motivated of course, and each instance decides per se
