All,

While I welcome the possible two way communication between Instagram (for starters) and the fediverse using ActivtiyPub, I also fear that META will use this to send ads out as part of the stream.

Do we have a position on that and maybe guidelines for implementors to prepare for this? A rather open question, I know. But I guess it will be an opportunity for the SocialCG to become visible in a good way too.

Thoughts? Out of scope for this group?
