WebRTC

WebRTC is a free, open project that enables web browsers with Real-Time Communications (RTC) capabilities via simple JavaScript APIs.

It's basically p2p in the browser without flash.

I can see the point. As soon as you give the data, or the software to a person, and they can have it on their machine, they don't need you anymore. But if you have it, and they need to go through some web api to get it, they'll keep coming back for it, like a drug user to a dealer. And you can make revenue off of their continued access through your web api by mining their habits and showing advertising.

And then the users are happy because all of their le data is on le the cloud, and so they don't need to worry about their le work data on their le work laptop already being on their le home laptop when they come home.

tldr; controllers of the masses and the idiot masses like it.
