The “Data linked to you” for Threads on the iOS App Store is because they are using Instagram as their authentication service. The two accounts are inexorably linked. If you use IG at all Meta already has this access/info.

@Mattmaber @cdevroe I expect it to be a different tool with a different purpose. Mastodon is likely to remain more niche, but hopefully somewhat devoid of influencers and other such trash.

Yep, and if that doesn't provide ppl with a good enough reason to leave, then nothing will.
