This is what happens when one entity is given full control without other "competition".
Note: My subject is not to be confused with the term "monolithic OS" of which Linux is one. Contrary to Tanenbaum, this is good.

There are probably many people who would not like to see the power of Linux in the hands of "the unwashed masses" and leave.
Will this happen?
