Because the dude comes from a corporate world where everybody's known for stagnation, not quality, so changing the name gets rid of an association with stagnation BUT also gets rid of an association with quality if that's the reputation you've built up and these types can not understand that because they've never worked in a place putting quality first

The casting protocol? Yes. Those devices? No. They're moving to Android TV devices with different branding
The best thing is how many different servers people are from here. No single gatekeeper who can wreck it.
64 bit counters are enough
Technically the choice of 1st January 1970 is itself a reference to the gregorian calendar
CF has multiple options, you can use them as just a load balancer/firewall while handling your own TLS cert. I think most let them hold the cert so they can get CF caching services though
It's super easy to detect change of product category and a bunch of other similar major changes. Especially now with ML classifiers, it's even easier. They could automatically lock the page and require review

It would also be crazy if statue of limitations would be used to argue that somebody isn't guilty when there's solid evidence just because a court can't legally find them guilty at that point
The remote playback control over network patents? I can't see why those patents should be valid, everything there has prior art done in the 80's
What I'm more pissed about is how Google killed Miracast (it's technically still around but Google removed it from default Android and OEMs have to choose to enable it) and how they fought against 3rd party implementations to keep the Chromecast protocol closed.
I see there's ongoing work for a Matter based standard for casting, I really hope that ends up getting broad support. We need something better than DLNA (and Miracast is technically DLNA over WiFi Direct). We need an open casting standard supporting Chromecast-like remote interactive content (the device is essentially a remote controlled web browser)
