Corporations have a long tradition:
- from printers refusing to print unless the ink was of the blessed brand
- to planned obsolescence of Apple phones
- to adversarial inoperability of Apple's trash lighting cable charger with well established standards
- to Apple refusing out of store transactions so they can steal developers' profits
- to Anthropic luring users saying they will never train on your chats but then training on your chats
- to facebook basically backdooring your device so they can track you cross vpn and incognito https://localmess.github.io/
- to locking your OS on your own device to not be able to install software that is not blessed by google so they can control what you install and bully the developers for a bigger slice of the pie
Companies like Meta, Google, Microsoft, Palantir, Apple are absolute garbage, a menace to society, a parasite that grows like a tumor and can only be stopped not by the non existent "invisible hand of the market", but by being regulated and fined to oblivion.
