I fail to see how this is much of a problem.

  In case you were asking how it might be a problem, look at some of its effects on the status quo: Forced obsolescence, pervasive spyware/security problems, being locked into an "app" ecosystem, user-hostile antifeatures, lack of modifiability to deal with hardware degradation over time, etc.

      Pervasive spyware is not a problem?

        Those used to tell online everything about their life down to the details could even consider it a service.
