Yeah, because it is all "slippery slope" and paranoia. So what that they federate? How are they going to force developers to implement ads? How will they force their unethical business model on you?

Zuck has been refining his unethical business model for decades, they aren't joining activitypub to be a team player.
Is there a way to technically deliver an unbroken user experience to a thread user without privacy issues?
Not really that I can think of, which is why I don't think anyone should federate with them. I agree it's instance operator and users choice but I feel like the default shouldn't be "sign your privacy away, block them if you want to have privacy again (which you likely already lost some of from being federated with them)"
