    But even if platforms agree to not make the data visible, anyone can spin up their own instance and browse through the backend data that is being sent. It’s the ActivityPub protocol itself, not the individual platforms that use it.

      The main difference is ease, and if you have to spin up your own instance vs just press a button I’d guess most people wouldn’t do it

        Most people wouldn’t, but all the ones you need to worry about would.
