Signore Camozzo hit the nail on the head, twice. So then I have to draw the proper conclusion...
1. We need concerted action to set non-proprietary communication standards at the application level, much like the TCP-IP Protocols did for the lower layer(s) 2. This action HAS to be POLITICAL, since it's not just a matter of devising technical standards, but to have them ADOPTED by the majority. We need the 75% of his email correspondents to not use proprietary email platforms (and so forth and so on, and including me and this email itself!) Ergo, it is at best naive trying to separate "Technology" from "Politics:" all Technology is Political, and ignoring this only rubber stamps the technology of the proprietary powers that be. Not by chance it's Technology companies at the top of the "most valuable company of the world" food chain: Google and Apple. If that's not a political statement, then what is? Where is "the swamp?"
