Luckily for us I think regulation is starting to go the other way. Also, I think of this more as a browser play than anything -- as much as people are locked into applications, more and more functionality is being allowed into the browser (look at the games and demos you can run in it today, and how well responsive sites can work) -- at some point the browser will be such a good platform that we might get another shot at adopting it.

The discourse around data safety and privacy has also developed -- not to a point that people care, but to a point that privacy can be a marketing term at least without being associated with criminality.
