Google added private API to Android to make contact data imported through Facebook sync adapter in-accessible/invisible to other applications! Maybe Google should respond by removing that restriction. This API was implemented specially for

I can see this model work for AI problems that depend more on data / trained models than actual code or algorithm itself. It also makes sense for patented algorithms (SIFT maybe), paying per instance solved might be cheaper/easier than deal
