Except Mojang can't stop mods from being made. At all.

Just use whatever mods you like. Boom. Done. Mission accomplished.

They blacklist servers to stop mods they don't like from being used. It happened to quite a couple.

Like servers found with any mod they want taken down get blacklisted.

Just make requirements to access like Roblox is doing right now?

Servers?

Dude. Mods aren't sever dependant. You can play them all locally or with friends. If you're playing with something deemed inappropriate, taking it to a public online server is obviously a stupid idea.

But where is the line drawn? It happened to a beer making mod and servers using it as mentioned. Also why do they allow other content that other games might consider 'inappropriate' but just not certain ones, why not ban all of it then?

They don't ban servers where you can shoot children in a school with guns or where you can basically be a suicide bomber but they ban stuff like beer and gore? There are even literal nsfw servers up which they are implied to know about but those never get banned, just vodka brewing and stuff they consider personally offends them.

Also why not put disclaimers on servers or make people need some sort of requirement then instead of blacklisting? Also I don't see how virtual beer is 'inappropriate' or gore?

Roblox has taken steps to this but mojang just bans.

"Where is the line drawn"? Where ever Microsoft/Mojang wants. They own the IP.

So, once again, don't use inappropriate mods in public servers.

Bethesda hosts mods for consoles for Skyrim and Fallout 4. Neither allow things they deem inappropriate. Treat a public server the exact same way.

Know why? Because public servers are PUBLIC. They don't want a kid hopping onto their children's game and seeing anime tiddies brewing beer inside a horse's nutsack.

Just make some servers require ID to use then like Roblox is already doing for some gore content?

So what game does this?

Also howcome servers with religious suicide bomber or school shooter references never get banned?

There are even servers with blatant nsfw content of other kinds which they are implied to have knowledge of that never get banned either. Like they just have to pick and choose particular ones which are not necessarily any worse than all the stuff they already allow like some realistic gore or vodka brewing and hangovers?

They could. But this is Microsoft we are talking about. Not gonna happen.

You want to play - you play by their rules. It's unfortunately that simple.

Exactly, so then what is a good alternative game by someone who does or will do this for people? Hence the question.

There is alot of money to be made here and Microsoft not taking it provides opportunity for somebody else to cash in. Could earn quite alot.

There is none.

Either play Minecraft on private servers, which literally does exactly what you want. Or play Fallout/Elder Scrolls by yourself.
