That can't be accurate otherwise it'd be incredibly easy to have maliciously taken down "the Fediverse" long ago. There might not be a direct Fedi distinction in the law and it might be too complex for the average district attorney to understand on the surface but that doesn't equate to "everyone is breaking the law" if something illegal shows up on a feed.
safe harbor law protects it. as long as its user uploaded content and you are not aware of it youre safe afaik
