> Why exactly? Because when the megacorporations were just corporations the web was young. Now the web is old, and what was interesting and novel at the small scale is tedious and taxing at the large scale. It's much the same as how it's now a death march to write a new standards-compliant browser, or how you can't really found a new country unless you want to start a bloody war or carve a chunk out of Antarctica. Sometimes, the rules have changed by the time new things come along.
