  So basically media will have more ways to manipulate us by tracking our browsing habits, subscriptions, comments, etc.

  I’ll pass thanks.

    I agree with your sentiment, but that is not at all what this article is about.

    If you’re talking news media, much of their worst behavior is rooted in the ad-driven business model. Subscriptions would actually help make things better. Not sure if there’s a way to leverage the fediverse for a subscription play, though

    Although I mirror your general sentiment, who is to say that the admins of lemmy.world, or kbin.social, or lemmy.ml, etc. etc. aren’t already doing what which you accuse “media”. It’s not at all implicit that privacy is guaranteed in this new Fediverse. Corrections welcome.

      Because it’s open source software and things such as mod logs are public to all.

      And it’s not about privacy, it’s about manipulation.

  So many words to say what is already very well known:

  Threads (and others) make proprietary, add ridden shitapps and get the fediverse content for free.

  This should be illegal. If you serve my content and put ads under and below it, you ought to pay me.

  Thats why threads will stay defederated for me (among other reasons)
