This shouldn't come as a huge surprise. Meta is moving forward with their plans for Theads and the Fediverse, and their adjusted terms reflect a new impending reality for Fediverse users.

If I didn't mind Meta scraping through all this, why wouldn't I just use Threads?

I'm curious what precautions you have taken to prevent web scraping of your posts.

Probably none. For all he knows Meta already owns a couple small instances.

They admitted to federating for research back around bluesky's announcement.

If you don't want your data scraped you'll need to use e2ee.
