I have two temperature sensors and keep their data, but I was getting a tonne of spam from my presence sensors which meant that my database was 2GB and growing. That level of IO would quickly kill my SD.
You know that meme where the person is riding the bike and puts the bar in the spokes? That's Mozilla and actions like this because it's all good to say that companies are creating advantages for themselves, but what about the fact that Mozilla creates disadvantage for itself? My example, everything Atlassian. Mozilla are in the middle of implementing a Firefox for Android redesign. If you've been around Mozilla long enough, you know redesigns generate a tonne of free marketing and mindshare, yet all of the stuff Mozilla is doing is locked design logins like the product isn't open source. Mozilla can't compete with Google's advertising money, so surely embracing community so they can talk about the product and market is the next best logical thing to do?
Microsoft are such weirdos. It's like they're trying to empower Google, who will lap up all of the users they abandon as they install Chrome OS, because let's be honest, the average Jo seldom just installs Linux, so they'll say, "oh I've heard of Chrome, let me try that"
