Not defending Facebook but the framing that Meta, specifically, is a risk vector for people seeking abortion in ways that any other internet platform people use to communicate (including this one) wouldn't be is harmfully inaccurate.
Your mastodon instance admin is very nice, I'm sure, but are you _positive_ they're willing to go to jail for you by refusing a subpoena if you've disclosed info in DMs here that could be used against you?

@cassey I don't think that Mastodon instance admins have any more access to private information than anyone else.
Meta, on the contrary, has far more information that could be incriminating if was given away to the state.
@miyelsh if you send DMs on mastodon, they're going to be in the database your admin has access to. If you say something incriminating in that DM, and your instance admin is required by law to hand it over.. there's nothing stopping that.
