It’s in an even worse position being self hosted by people/entities with no power or sway in the face of a state.
Is there a technical provision that applies to people hosting mastodon instances that doesn’t apply to large social media cos and cannot be beaten with a $5 wrench?

Mastodon is federated, which means everyone can start a instance. There will always be instances not controlled by the government and you cannot chase everyone.
