    It’s not the snooping, it’s companies making their own incompatible proprietary system and jealously guarding it to force you to only buy their stuff, except everybody else is doing the same thing so the actual result is that getting things working together and keeping it all working is a pain in the ass.

      And every time an open standard is adopted it opens the market and is better for all those businesses that resisted it. Yet they always resist. It’s so infuriating.
