Maybe we should do software first. I see no reason why I should not get copies of all binaries and all source code for any and every service I use upon request. And even copies of databases backing them when requested. Then I could simply replicated it in my own environment or roll up competing service. And as for data, what is privacy anyway. If you want the data be private don't generate it... /s



Sadly I feel like Poes law hits here. I do see a few borderline argue such a case.

They must have no products of their own nor care how the people behind the knowledge they consume make a living.
