The way this world works is when each of us fulfil our own obligation or liability. The system doesn’t work on a single node but it works as a collective result of all the nodes functioning as a cohesive unit.
Back then when Steve Jobs and Bill Gates were trying hard to place a personal computer in every home, it wasn’t just their genius invention that made people go gaga over what cool stuff these machines could do.
It was a result of a combination of hundred of tiny components put together by Steve and Bill, components manufactured by various different suppliers. Imagine a PC without them?
It’s exactly how the web works today. You cannot say that Google rocks this world alone or Facebook is the center of the universe. Users, mainly outside the tech community, view Google and Facebook as two
seperate entities that are now as essential as their daily bread and butter. Finding their friends from Gmail contact list could be banned but it’s not going to make Google the loser or Facebook a winner.
When two tech giants clash, either of the two things happen – web users win or they lose. How are you treating your users?
