Because it's not the network they signed up for an account on?
I am not a lawyer so I cannot comment on legal challenges, I'm just very curious to know if bridging to a network you didn't sign up on with an opt-out system is legal.
@homegrown @lisamelton @mastodonmigration Iβm not a lawyer, either, but I would be willing to bet it would be very difficult to argue that in court, since the openness of the protocol means anyone can build an application on it. The βnetworkβ is opaque to users.
