What if #Meta somehow starts pumping ads and promoted content into the #Fediverse?

The latest "hot-takes" article on #Threads (https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/07/fear-loathing-and-excitement-as-threads-adopts-open-standard-used-by-mastodon/) suggests that Meta is still working out some 'small details', like:

1. Account migration
2. What Threads content, "including, potentially, the role of ads" will be broadcast out into the Fediverse
3. How Fediverse users will be able to see or interact with Threads

Can all instances at least commit that pushing ads at us is a step too far?
