I think this will exemplify the beauty of federation. If I find out my instance mods are running all of my comments through a company’s ai model, I’ll switch instances. This is in great disparity to something like Instagram or Snapchat where every photo I post is immediately fed to ai and my only options are: be okay with it, never post, or delete Instagram.

Seeing that every single post we make is completely public there is a high chance someone out there already used all your comments for training an AI model. As you say, the only thing you can do is just not post anything anymore.

Mods of any instance you’re federated with can do this

this is what reddit does, and destroyed thier communities and left it with bots on most subs. reddit also lets you hide your history so you cant sniff out bots/ or chronic spammers.

But you don’t even need to be a mod to do that. Anyone at any moment can run someone else’s entire comment and post histories through an LLM.
