bs. most of the software developed in history, and most of the revenue associated with software development, is related with software developed, customized or improved for a single customer/user. there's no reason whatsoever for such software not to be under that customer/user's control, and indeed that's the most common case. software for mass consumption is the exception rather than the rule. -
