    Yes, I think I can personally assume at least most of what they are saying is true as it’s pretty typical for the FBI to go after left wing groups like this. Another recent example: https://theintercept.com/2023/07/06/fbi-social-media-surveillance-zerofox/

    Regardless, you are correct when it comes to privacy and security. It is important to note that none of the Fediverse is encrypted AFAIK(1) and server admins can see everything if they so desire. Most don’t, but it’s there.

    (1) Almost forgot about Matrix, which is the most private of accessible messengers. It’s worth checking out and you can interloop other messengers into it iirc. :)
