Just a lexical correction to your message: the establishment of standard protocols is a process of comodification. The main goal of making a product "unique" and not interoperable is to avoid being comoditized.
- harpiaharpyja 1y agoYeah, "commodification" is the wrong word here. I'm not sure what the best word would be, but it would be more along the lines of "extraction" or "exploitation". As in: The last 15 years has been just relentless attempts to bend and twist everything the previous generation has built to extract value instead of creating it. Something like that.
