It is odd that people have some idea that Mastodon is more private, but if all your information is out there where everybody can see it, then it's not really private, and somebody out there will be tracking it. The same with E.Liddell's suggestion about setting up one's own instance. It doesn't help, unless we can be truly anonymous.
But privacy is not the problem that Mastodon and other Federation software intend to solve; they are trying to provide "social" internet services that do not lock the user to a particular platform.
