the argument i am not making is that we shouldn't have community-level safety, as we currently have a culture of, and is a separate area that needs improvement too. What i'm saying is that people should be able to have the kind of control over their privacy they need so that it's just impossible to do the kind of scraping that they find objectionable. so it's possible to build more public tooling for people who want it, while the people who don't want it don't have to keep watching over their shoulder. To get there, we need to make it possible for people and communities to change what software they use to support their members - to have identity representable by multiple programs at once for larger instance experimentation, and to have identity be highly mobile so smaller groups and single people can move without sacrificing their entire everything.
