Indeed. Beyond the lock-in problems, I think the easiest and biggest situation where people realized their situation was going to change, and not for the better, was when Google bought Nest. And yet, even after that, we still have these situations. Even Home Assistant has a cloud option, but it's not integrated in so tightly that if they stop the cloud option, Home Assistant stops working. They made it local first, and that's the most interesting thing that I like about it.
