I don't think it would, but I suspect they're hoping it will

To be clear, it says they clarify what content is non-public. They aren’t saying all content is non-public.

I mean, the fact that it’s literally FOSS that’s run and hosted by users or groups of users kinda takes the corporate angle all the way out of it. Sure, some will try (threads, etc), but who wants to federate fucking ads?

It’s where you give money to spez for no good reason and he buys a big fucking yacht or something like that

Or if you’re using it for business reasons, probably some shit about targeting users with ads or whatever
