You do if you get sued because you missed something. It's not like lemmy world can moderate every post from every server. Any single user can get any federated community's content pulled locally just by subscribing.
The law in the US is that you aren't responsible for what your users post unless you are specifically legally notified and furthermore the communities at issue don't host links to infringing content they host discussions on the topic
So by that logic, .world should defederate from all other instances, just to be safe?
