      That’s true, but I would imagine (or hope) that any instance that started running privacy invading algorithms or harvesting data would be defederated by the rest of the fediverse.

        I mean the apps rather than the instances. There’s nothing about the fediverse that would stop, say, Jerboa (to pick one at random, I’m sure they’re fine!) from scraping and selling your data.
