With the corollary that *any* vendor motivated to do so can serve the same function. Meaning the options aren't just “use this vendor or get nothing”, as they are with a centralised service. With a federated service, anyone *can* run their own instance, which means that few people have to: vendors can pop up and compete with one another, participants have the option of moving to a different vendor taking their data and functionality and established relationships and discussions and identity where they choose. -- \ “The aim of science is not to open the door to infinite wisdom, | `\ but to set some limit on infinite error.” —Bertolt Brecht, | _o__) _Leben des Galilei_, 1938 | Ben Finney
