I mean, any business owner should be watching out for rising competitive threats and thinking about how to nullify them.
Unfortunately for us that means the big players are trying hard to stifle the innovators....
- shmerl 4y agoThe point is that he is worrying here not about improving their own things to compete, but about barrier for entry being low which means fast progress. Gatekeeping is bad, business owners or not. Strategy to nullify competition instead of competing is disgusting and damaging to progress and market itself.

- shmerl 4y agoGiven how anti-competitive MS was in practice, I totally read it all in a negative way. Especially when they mention "embrace and extend" in the same discussion.
