This would have quite an impact, not just on the UK but also on the EU. Is Mastodon ready for the flood? Or will it be Bluesky benefiting most?

When it comes to privacy, Bluesky (owned by Bluesky Social, PBC or public benefit corporation) is not Signal (owned and operated by the Signal Foundation). Direct messages on Bluesky are unencrypted, and they collect quite a lot of personal data (see section 8B in their privacy policy), they use these data for marketing and "other purposes" (section 10), and share them with "third-party services" and "business partners" (section 11). Mastodon should get its act together.
