  Don’t post on the internet. If you think Meta doesn’t also crawl the web the old school way like Google also does to train AI and such, you’re seriously out of touch with reality.

    Giving them your own data legally and that they illegally fetch your data is not same.

      Crawling the web isn’t illegal. Google wouldn’t exist if it was.

      You could try to follow a user from threads, such as @mosseri. I guess that won't be possible from instances where threads is defederated.

      no there are levels of privacy when you make a post on mastodon. public, unlisted, followers only, and only people mentioned.

      unlisted opts out of discovery like the public timelines
