Yeah that's also my worry. That Meta (is it already legally allowed to use that name anyway...?) will try to grab data and analyze it for free kind of (without the potential ad revenue, but well at least free data...). With AI it can likely easily pinpoint/target each user and create a profile or something, maybe even link it with people on their platforms I guess...
Anyway they could still just use the API I guess, they just can't easily subscribe to the Activity streams via their official instance (but of course they could spin up an instance that just crawls and subscribes to every instance).
I'm really interested what their intention is exactly, but it's for sure not good...
