Another scenario would be all universities cooperate in one instance, like Surf does for all Dutch universities and colleges for vocational training.

All in all my conclusion after experiencing the same: Samsung wants to replicate the same level of surveilance Google has. So with a Samsung phone I need to degoogle AND to desamsung …

Anybody know if messengers fall within this definition?

Only thing I claimed was you missed the point of SomeAmateur, meaning one can understand global supply chain AND worry about depending on foreign entities using it in geo-politics, so mentioning counter measures (make some stuff ourselves for a change) is reasonable. I am wrong all the time by the way, I just adress a lot more in my comments which you choose to ignore. But alas, you are free to pick and choose just like everybody else.

We as a species make up terms on a daily basis, so I feel the liberty to do the same. Glad it doesnt give any results because it indicates original thought.

If large parts of the supply chain consist of suppliers (vendors) on the other side of the earth, one can focus on one vendor lock-in or one by one (for analytical purposes) and optimise for that but often the bigger picture of a complex supply chain is missed.

Hence the aggregated lock-in.

But to avoid futher confusion maybe supply-chain lock-in is a better term and yields searchs results.

Tell me you dont know how supply lock-in is a tool for geopolitics without telling me you dont know how supply lock-in is a tool for geopolitics.

F-Droid changed the label to Non-Free Network Services because just linking from a POI to a booking site alone (without affiliate linking etc) isn’t the privacy nightmare fdroid wants it to be.

I could use OM my whole life without clicking links from POI and never is anything exchanged with Kayak or OM.

If one does a booking at Kayak then sure Kayak takes all kind of PII. OM wouldnt know btw.

Non free network label is assigned because OM app is dependent on OM providing mapdata. And one cant change that. Its like OSMand can provide for OM or vice versa.
