    How would you expunge such an actor though? Can’t literally anyone setup an instance and get a stream of content by design? Without the shady instance participating / posting data you’d never know would you?

      I would say, if a company would do that legit, they would require a lot of agreements with other instances. If they do it under the “radar” like a sleeper instance, then we dont know and we will never know.

          Yeah I was going to point that there’s nothing to my knowledge required… no t&c or anything… not even data processing agreement which is annoying imho.
