    Good TLDR

    I would also add:

    Data gathered from the raid can be used to investigate and prosecute crimes unrelated to the original seizure.

    Mastodon does not currently encrypt direct messages.

      That’s because Mastodon doesn’t have direct messages. It is not a chat platform. You can bend the privacy settings to publish posts similarly to DMs, but no one should use it as such.
