More worrying than that, when directly asked about this by the “Mastodon Migration” user, Rochko’s answer was not “I did not sign any NDA”, no “I have not met with them”, no “I have not heard any proposal from FB”, no “I haven’t signed any documents”, and sure as fuck no “I’m not considering selling out and betraying you all”, no, he said just “I am not aware of any secret deals with Meta”.
We have to assume he met with them, signed the NDA and is seriously considering whatever they’re proposing, and there’s rumors that they’re gonna pay money to any participant servers, that would make them effectively vassals of Meta.

That’s a textbook application of the Suspiciously Specific Denial trope.

@jherazob “I didn’t see any invisible killer hide an as-yet-undiscovered corpse”, how very reassuring.
