A powerful "Bootleggers and Baptists" pattern seems to have emerged in tech space. In online media, and social media the power of major platforms became apparent at some point. Happenings in twitter or FB can determine politics, catalyze rebellions (eg Arab Spring), uprisings, even genocide. At this point the pressure and desire to act responsibly becomes irresistible. This "camp" finds common cause with "bootleggers" who want to lock down the platforms and markets for commercial reasons.
