Products can charge for access to their platform that is built on top of an open protocol. Ideally there would be lots of platforms, both open(free) versions and closed(paid) ones. Supporting either is supporting the open protocol behind them.
The second half is exactly what I mean about voting with your dollar.
From the user perspective it boils down to:
- do you believe in open protocol as a base layer, or a walled garden model is the best path forward?
Because both support the theoretical needs of the user, it's just a philosophical difference about which is more effective at fulfilling the mandate.
