    I don’t understand - why would ISPs gang up on ActivityPub? How would it force larger instances to “crack”?

    Are you saying that they would ramp up costs for utilizing the protocol specifically? Wouldn’t that go against Net Neutrality…?

      I understand, I’m speculating, but from what I’ve read it happens occasionally if you try to host your own email or chat server: you may get blacklisted. Or they could hypothetically hike the costs of certain server features needed to host your own instance instead of an established one.
