Is kbin.social anti-corporation? Should it be?

shepherd@kbin.social to /kbin meta@kbin.social – 72 points –

I'm seeing discussions on other instances about how a "federated" corporate instance should be handled, i.e. Meta, or really any major company.

What would kbin.social's stance be towards federating/defederating with a Meta instance?

Or what should that stance be?

Kbin.social need not be anti-corporation, but setting standards that fellow federated instances must abide by / putting into place a "collective treaty of federation" or some such that sets the terms of federating with kbin.social (and other signatory instances) would be exceedingly wise. In theory, I have no problem seeing commercial entities as part of the fediverse. In practice, though, I'd want to see strong protections in place to prevent them from turning the fediverse into "Social Network Inc, but hosted on everyone else's dime.
