OP was taking about Tumblr, but I think it applies even more to the Fediverse: users need to develop an ethos of paying to support the sites they use. Otherwise advertisers pay the bills and call the shots.

Given that the democratic representatives in my country are trying to implement authoritarian surveillance since decades and try time and time again, despite being slammed by the constitutional court, no i dont trust them.

They dont care for and dont understand the meaning of these spaces and the necessary rules.

Of course you are right that private entities are not free from it either. That is where federation seems to be the best way to adress it.
