@josephcox Necessary consequence of having an open firehose (which they're committed to, as letting others start an interoperating peer network is part of their future-proofing strategy). Researchers on, e.g., abusive behavior love it; they have full access. But there are downsides.

(And scraping the local and network feeds of a few fairly central Mastodon servers would have a similar effect... not the whole fediverse, but with rebroadcasts from network feeds, quite a lot of it.)
