If you don't want your posts/content to appear on other websites from the one you posted it on, why would you use a federated platform in the first place? Isn't the entire point of these kinds of platforms that this kind of content is shared between sites?

And on a mostly unrelated side note, that bit about people trying to force the website to display CP to get the owner in legal trouble is exactly the reason why strict liability crimes that don't care about intent are a bad idea

I have the same thoughts. I feel like when you post on the Fediverse, it's just public. It's like shouting something in the town square - it's out there, anyone can hear it. If you're not cool with that, maybe you shouldn't use ActivityPub.

Not just ActivityPub, everything you upload publicly online is, well, public. One of the first things I learnt as a kid about the internet is that everything you put online stays online. You can't expect to be able to upload things online for everyone to see but somehow still have full control over what those people do with it.
