<h2>Reason</h2>
<p>
A token lets us connect to the <a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/streaming/#public">the public timeline streaming API</a> of your instance so that we can include it in our sampling of the Fediverse, and to redistribute it through the <a href="https://relay.fedi.buzz">#FediBuzz Relay</a>, a service that is already used by many small instances. We are very happy to run this tool in support of decentralized media, implementing what centralized services do with ease: to provide a global view. Just like search engines do for the Web.
</p>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>
Mastodon v4.2.0 <a href="https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/23989#issuecomment-1628961709">breaks unauthenticated access</a> in future versions. That really sucks for <a href="https://fedi.buzz">#FediBuzz</a>.
</p>
<h2>Your privacy</h2>
<p>
We consume only the <em>federated timeline</em>. We don't even see boosts or replies. The permissions that we request shouldn't allow us to do anything else.
</p>
<p>
#FediBuzz gets at less data than what the Web crawlers can see. Of course, we respect the Internet standard <em>robots.txt</em>.
</p>
<p>
Despite taking these precautions on our side, we still do not recommend using ActivityPub for sensitive communications. After all, it is made for <em>publishing</em>. Your data on Mastodon is already available to secret polices and script kiddies who will laugh at a robots.txt. For private messaging, we recommend <a href="https://omemo.top/">XMPP with OMEMO</a>.
