Unless you physically own your hardware and connection, all of this is moot anyway.
Any time you're spinning up an instance on cloud-hosted solutions, you're by it's very nature putting everything on someone else's physical property.
This is an issue I wish was discussed more, because Federation helps ameliorate certain problems with the modern internet, but it doesn't address how much of the physical hardware and networking infrastructure is privately owned and operated.
Seize the means of computation.
