Control of Bootstrapping Nodes in IPFS Network

I am exploring the level of control that bootstrapping nodes possess over peers attempting to join the IPFS network. Can these nodes blacklist peer IDs or prevent connections to specific peers? In the scenario of a malicious user uploading harmful files to the IPFS network, is there a mechanism in place to effectively stop them?

In the context of Distributed Hash Tables (DHT), it is possible to utilize any other DHT node as a bootstrap node. It is important to note that bootstrappers do not have control over who enters the network.

In the most recent releases, Kubo has implemented a feature where it saves a list of 100 peers and utilizes them for subsequent bootstrapping processes. This approach helps in efficiently establishing connections within the network during the bootstrapping phase.
