This reminds me a lot about Cory Doctorow’s concept of Adversarial Interoperability: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2019/10/adversarial-interopera...

Something that was very popular back in the day, and was a great filter for companies, and something that most of the current giants did to their competitors, before declaring via laws that nobody can do it onto them to secure their market position indefinitely.
