    Here’s the definition I gave for term in the first article i the series:

    “Meta’s fediverses”, federating with Meta to allow communications, potentially using services from Meta such as automated moderation or ad targeting, and potentially harvesting data on Meta’s behalf.

      …ad targeting, and potentially harvesting data on Meta’s behalf

      That is already possible regardless of federation status.
