I'm not even considering that perspective. I'm just wary of the neofuedalist movement of technology in the last ten years or so, fueled by the mobile platforms being subject to regulatory capture.

The fact that data being captured by intelligence communities already shows you who owns this "land" and considers the "natural resources" theirs for the pillaging, this is a great example of the kind of neofeudalism this proposed platform is building. We just rent the internet, the data that it generates is for the kings and gods.

The fact that these so called mobile platforms leave so much complexity to be managed by the developer just goes to show that these so called platforms are simply land grabs and don't actually offer anything to the developer except his software locked down to a single platform. They don't need to offer any service, just a rent collecting system for their captured land.
