I have seen stuff done two decades ago in the defense industry which put to shame some of the projects I am working on nowadays: extremely modular architecture, very good service-oriented framework with hot-swapable and hot-reloadable comp

You don't need to carve anything. The market under consideration is not phones. It's phone application publishing and distribution and it is mostly a duopoly. Abuse on this market will most likely affect content producers more th
