@waifu @p Probably is, heading talks about Mastodon, third paragraph mentions Pleroma as a decentralized network separate from Mastodon and at the bottom it talks about extending research to Pleroma. I'm literally in the dataset, Pleroma is already included.

@aetios @p @waifu What they did was basically replace user names with numbers and called it a day.

@aetios @p @waifu Actually not even that, my handle is there in full. They forgot to censor "fqn" and "pleroma.ap_id" fields.

@phnt @aetios @waifu "Forgot" versus "did enough to say they 'anonymized' it but didn't care".

Aside from all the other shit, they left in things like avatars. But, like:

> "fqn": "whereverbot@fsebugoutzone.org",
> "display_name": "whereverbot",

Anyway, worse than @lanodan thought, they have a shit-ton of nicecrew.gov posts in there.
