Meta just announced that they are trying to integrate Threads with ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.). We need to defederate them if we want to avoid them pushing their crap into fediverse.

If you're a server admin, please defederate Meta's domain "threads.net"

If you don't run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate "threads.net".

Alright, fair enough, but why would anyone allow meta even an inch of space into a 'free' platform?

It's an open protocol, they can join if they want. That's kinda the point of being an open protocol, anyone willing to implement it just can.

I imagine that if tomorrow Meta decides to run a free email service ala Hotmail or Gmail you'd be demanding that they will destroy email everywhere if they aren't put on every black hole list immediately?
