@Morgan Yeah, I mean, constructive input regarding the dangers of certain technologies, can help. But in the end, we are seeing a lot of power to decide to put certain technologies into the hands of a corporation (and only one at that) to say "This is what Internet should be like".
Just like the other day, one Geminaut was lamenting how hard is to set up your own email server if you expect it to work with certain provider. And does it have ever deterred spam, all that tech? No, my spam folder keeps getting filled daily and what keeps it usable are the filters. But it has deterred anyone with the know-how to put up their email server if they wish to. I see the same potential here.

Well, every big corp in the World Wide Web is closing their open access to their sites and APIs, so it was only time Google decided the World Wide Web is *their* API and close it to be used the *approved way*. Link to Reddit, beware. [https link] Google's New Web Environment Integrity (read DRM)
