    ha, uh. ok whatever you say there boss.

    do you any actual information regarding meta controlling the AP protocol with their single instance and no seat at the protocol table, or is this all just a huge premature, knee-jerk reaction to a big scary corporation?

      It is about power. If they have more than 50% of the users, then all other instances should comply with their changes and obey them. If they don’t, then they’ll be blocked by more than half of the users. No instance owner will take this risk.

      I’m trying to explain you that you don’t really need to own something to own it. If you have enough power, you have it already.
