I think it would be more likely bots would flood instances with posts at a level that was unrealistic for the small scale admins we currently have to combat.

    There is a bit of a chain of trust, however. Instance fills with spam bots? Defed.
    Spam bots start making their own instances? Go to whitelists.

    And as henfredemars says, because there is no financial incentive to grow the userbase, instances can slow things right down if the spam starts.
