   @kaniini Why isn't the ID the WebID?

     @kellerfuchs True, noone's properly used WebFinger for notice object lookups yet.

     @kaniini What ever happened with the ActivityPub client API?

     Simply because WebFinger lets you do lookups on stuff identified with a URI. Doesn't necessarily have to be an acct:

     Well, one example in RFC7033 is author and copywrong information about a website. So you should be able to fetch information about a notice URI from WebFinger whenever someone implements that properly.
     
     See: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7033#section-3.2

     @clacke Consider if WebFinger lets you lookup URIs. This means if the URL is unavailable (domain expired etc.) data is still stored in the hive mind of the !fediverse. You wouldn't have to contact the original server, any server that had received the object would do. Wouldn't that be nice?
