You're right. They will. But there's nothing they can influence. Laws be damned. No one owns ActivityPub.
Except the one where, you know, you can use the Fediverse as an actual social media outlet where your friends and family are, public figures and all that, without subjecting yourself to ads and spying. I think that's a pretty good one.
