#EmbraceExtendAndExtinguish

How Google helped destroy adoption of RSS feeds

Learn how one of the biggest tech companies played a major role in the reason many people stopped using RSS feeds

@harriorrihar Point is: Nothing that #NSAbook does will ever allow you that flexibility - they are - like all #GAFAM|s - inherently interested in a #ToxicRelationship with maximum pain for leaving [See #EmbraceExtendAndExtinguish ] .

That's why #TechIlliterates haven't made the jump to #Linux ages ago...

That's why people still use shit likg #Google and #Facebook and their Services...
