How is this article related to the fediverse? It doesn't even mention threads. This just seems like another "Facebook bad" article, which, while it might be true, doesn't seem directly relevant to this sublemmy.

Meta runs Facebook.

Meta also runs Threads.

Threads runs on top of the ActivityPub protocol.

Some instances federate with Threads.

How is it not relevant if they're willing to buy a company and hijack traffic for numbers, what won't they do when they can just spin up a server and syphon data?
