There's a lot of shitty things they can do. They could push for changes to ActivityPub that nobody sane wants, confusing everybody that says "We support ActivityPub", and spread FUD about anyone that doesn't move to their new shitty version. Similar to how Google pushes through changes to web standards that benefit them, forcing Firefox to implement them too.
Then it's up to Mastodon not to bow to the changes. The worst thing that can happen is that we lose federation with Threads again.
