Hey folks,
This is a more general question for me to better understand the Fediverse.
If one of the popular instances decide to monetise the user data, are there any legal frameworks to stop that?

Depends on the location of the instance. The EU and California have laws for that, for example.

I don’t think that any of those places have legal protection against a sellout like that.
I’m guessing you’re referring to the GDPR guidelines (for EU at least, not sure what the equivalent California rules are).
Yes.
