When companies decided that they need to know as much as possible about the end user, and don't want to care about backwards compatibility (old version apps, all users are using latest)
And consequently when they started to give no f about if users like or not the new version of the app forced on them. So before the Enterprise Oriented Design.
Making mobile platforms second class citizens was wrong.
