Apples and oranges - when you introduce a government mandate, you remove the market. @tptacek's aregument is clearly about market forces in publicly defined standards, not government enforced ones.
I'm pretty sure the last thing anyone really wants is what we'd wind up with if web standards were left to government dictates...
- kuschku 9y agoThere’s no need for a government to enforce standards on the web – there’s already an oligopoly that can do it on their own. In fact, there’s a single company that can just outright dictate web standards, because they hold almost 70% of the browser market: Google.
