Well yeah, it's not encrypted. It would be the same as 10 years of Reddit posts or Lemmy posts scraped
This isn't even them scraping private chats and small servers, they just scraped public servers in the discovery tab. None of that information was ever private, and every user can browse the chat history there.
Yeah, exactly. It may sound scary or like a violation of privacy, but there is no privacy when posting to public online areas.
