There’s also the possibility of just paying off owners of popular instances in exchange for allowing advertising to its members and installing trackers.

True. This might be less of a problem if it becomes really easy to transfer your account to another instance, because people would just drift away from the ads, especially if other instances started creating filters to block them.
