The reality is that Meta and many other even uglier actors could hide behind any innocent looking organisation... and then remove the mask later....
They can also acquire someone who is already federated...
Moreover, for any AP compliant server or application to be 'defederated', we would need to convince the 23k admins to do it one-by-one... that is the nature of the Fediverse, so they WILL get a clean entrance no matter what. There is no way to block them at protocol level.
Perhaps I am understanding the original post wrongly, but I don't see why we should do a preemptive block (for Meta or anyone), nor how we would execute such a thing in practice.
