Not that I’m aware of? Not saying you personally did, I’m discussing the context. This post and the top level comments.

Like I said, that’s a fine opinion to hold. What isn’t fine is the constant spinning of facts and narratives to suit a personal bias, regardless of how I feel about that bias.

If that’s your opinion then great, that was always allowed. What I’m sick of is spinning facts and narratives to suit biases, regardless of whether or not I agree with those biases.

not because of any existing tangible evidence in this circumstance

If you’re going to quote me I’d appreciate if you didn’t cut out relevant parts of it to fit your argument.

Oh, I do. I’m my own instance admin, I work as a senior architect and grasped the concept of Fediverse quite fast.

The “you” in my comment was a generalized “you”, not you specifically.

They’re literally just taking data they need to federate, like all the other instances. Eventually people around here are going to get sick of this paranoid “fuck Meta because it’s Meta” attitude because people keep posting lame misinformation like this. I know I’m getting sick of it.

Ok, so we’re back to defederation not because of any existing tangible evidence in this circumstance, but “because it’s Meta”. It’s fine if that’s your opinion and all, but let’s stop spreading misinformation on the dangers of collecting the data required by anyone for federation.

And if you’re here and pretending to care about data privacy at least try to do the bare minimum in understanding how the Fediverse works.

Yeah, no shit, they literally can’t federate without this data, that’s how ActivityPub works lol.
