People that attack proprietary APIs always miss the point why most devs outside FOSS circles prefer them.

Turns out when one isn't ideologically against something they aren't willing to put up with a lesser experience just for the cause.

I know it's not the same thing because proprietary vs open software it's way less important but, generally if you are not ideologically against something you can easily follow the stream and do lot of nefarious actions, especially if the action has enough degrees of separations from the actual nefast outcome.
