A corporation only ever adopts open standards when it is advantageous to them, the moment it is the counter they close it down or stop cooperating.

This has been repeated with Microsoft, Google, Oracle (Sun too), SCO for those of us old enough etc.

Embrace, extend and extinguish has been done over and over again from them all. Meta/Facebook is no different.
