It's wonderful, but the absurd thing is the whole protective start-up culture that thinks this is crazy. The truth is that people ought to not trust businesses whose main function is to lock you in with trade secrets and other anti-competitive measures.

Yes, competition makes things harder. But isn't competition what all these capitalists say is the answer to things anyway?? These guys are among the few non-hypocrites.
