You're free to not federate with them but due to the open nature of the fediverse there's nothing you can do to stop them from federating with you. What ever you post they have access to.

Still. This has nothing to do with what I was talking about.

Federation doesn't mean "can scrape your data"

OK.

They can scape your post history. Anyone can. You can only prevent this by not postin.

I know that, but it's not what "Federate" means.

In any case, I'm doubtful we have common ground in any area here to try building on, and it feels like we have been talking past each other this entire time, so this will be my final participation in this interaction with you. Good day.
