You are looking at this the wrong way. If you post stuff on the open web, it’s out there. It’s been scraped for years, and will get scraped. The Fediverse is as low profile a place as any, but its no different.

That’s what releasing content into public means: others may do stuff with it you don’t like, and you have to live with it, unfortunately. And honestly, I think it’d be tragic if they didn’t publish mods over that fear.
