As long as they're federated, they can track your movements. The fediverse doesn't need Meta to be successful. And if it can somehow gain benefit from it, that will then become a weakness that Meta will exploit.

It's not a question of if meta will fuck the fediverse over, but how and when. Pre-emptive defederation is the best way to mitigate those effects. You've seen their track record, the time of "benefit of the doubt" is long gone.
