How do you envision to hamper third parties with FOSS?
and do you mean FOSS, as in copyleft? or OSS as in OSI compliant?
With either, how do you think you can block third parties?

As far as I know, market participants, especially large ones, must compete; they can't choose not to compete. Otherwise they hurt consumers and economic growth, and can create a barrier for new market entrants.
- froh 2y agohelp me understand how technical cooperation hurts customers and economic growth, exactly? I don't see it. to the contrary. reality (e.g. Linux, android) also indicates competition, cooperation of competitors, is helping customers and grows economy.
