   Oh, standards body stacking up in order to promote a private agenda of profit, I wonder how that sounds awfully familiar (2007/2008 and oh-ho xml)

     So I'm still sorta amazed. Europe's telco standards body ETSI allows member companies to vote directly on decisions. Apple weighs in with 21 (!!) separate country operations as members. There are 11 local Samsung entities, 11 Qualcom, 10 Intel and 7 Huawei. Probably all a coincidence. https://www.etsi.org/membership
