    The dangerous part is that he can start bribing admins of large instances to federate Threads. I’m not sure how one would practically defend against something like this. The only way I can think of would be for an admin to be so ideologically opposed to Meta that they would refuse even $1m to federate. But such people are rare.

        That could help. But then we need:

        1. More instances.
        2. A more uniform distribution of users. (as opposed to people flocking to just one or a couple of instances)
