@wonkothesane @vantablack not even close.
#Crawlers can be detected very well and usially blocked or at least throttled down to be less effective than single, human users.
Whereas #Federation inevitably necessitates to allow access to huge amounts of data, even if it's just public posts and profiles...
But still, that is valuable #MassSurveillance that #NSA wants to gather and sell to any #SurveillanceState, as it's more cost-effective than #targetedSurveillance necessitating operator hours.
