Meta just announced that they are trying to integrate Threads with ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.). We need to defederate them if we want to avoid them pushing their crap into fediverse.

If you’re a server admin, please defederate Meta’s domain “threads.net

If you don’t run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate “threads.net”.

    Anyone can collect the data anyway, and I’m sure at least one person out there is already harvesting our Fediverse data.

      There’s a big difference between some random person and Meta collecting the data.

        Everything is public on fedi (if we’re talking about communities alike), so any bot can and is already scrapping everything through regular HTTP. You must be extremely ignorant to think otherwise.

        Meta can collect every scrap of Lemmy right now

        Edit: downvote for what? My comment is true
