They supposedly can be disabled in settings- but we all know that won't last. They're going full Microsoft Skype mode and it's only a matter of time.

1st. implementing activitypub or any other federation protocol is quite a task. also in my opinion it does not need to be federated. there are basically no benefits, except convenience for the users.

2nd. it's open source. if you don't like the way it's monetized, fork it and make your own. it' not foss.

that's all very fair, i guess i was just hoping federation was at least on a long term roadmap
