Though Lemmy and Mastodon are public sites, and their structures are open-source I guess? (I’m not a programmer/coder), can they really dodge the ability of AI s to collect/track any data everytime they search everywhere on Internet?

What are you wanting to protect? I think you should hold a bit of anonymity overall to where it doesn’t matter a whole lot. The thrill of these platforms are the more anonymous characters willing to share what’s on their mind without huge out-lash/cancelling in my opinion.
you can try and hold on to this ‘light anonymity’ as long as you want, but i feel the longer we all spend in the public fediverse, the easier it will be to piece together our content->id by fingerprinting… should someone decide they really want to do that.
ive kind of taken a more public approach…no, im not blathering my personal info about… but i try not to say or do anything i wouldnt say or do to that person in public on the street in front of my house.
Just change accounts often, don’t build up a big persona fingerprint.
