Their step one is:
identify medium-to-large sized Fediverse servers
which means it'll be weighted toward mastodon servers. I hope they account for that somehow.
The Atlantic Council report linked in this post is quite interesting. For those who don't know, the Atlantic Council is a major "think tank" which is funded by billionaires and the US government, and helps to write US foreign policy. In the report is a section about moderation on Mastodon and the Fediverse (from page 124). However the report only talks about moderation in terms of fighting "disinformation". Other things like moderating trolls, spammers or racists are completely ignored.
There’s an associated fediverse deep dive report, Annex 5: Collective Security in a Federated World (PDF).
I posted about it two months ago:
"Even Meta has announced intent to interoperate with the network via Threads."
Sounds like a bug, can we fix this? 😂

Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".
