For the two preceding reasons, scalability and perceived privacy, federation technologies have always degenerated into a slippery slope leading people from free services into the dependency of centralized offerings. It comes as no surprise that at some point the so-called open standards lose their relevance and the big companies procede to lock their users in for good.

I have no idea what this secushare or PSYC2 thing is, but they seem to be making interesting conversation.

@mlinksva@identi.ca I saw that and thought the problem is the federation escapes he listed don't generate revenue so there's no full time employees updating pieces. Browsers are federated technology with many complex moving parts, but because they're also ad delivery tools they get updated.
