A recent post about Firefox and my general view of corporations and organizations has caused a bit of a stir. It even caught the attention of Asa Dotzler. He said "It's really hard for me to believe that either [Microsoft or Adobe] have the free and open Web at heart when they're actively subverting it with closed technologies like Flash and Silverlight." But are they really subverting it? Where exactly is the line between serving the consumer and subverting the web? I think the W3C should share in this blame.

Agree. Even the best browsers haven't run out of W3C recommendations to implement, and then there's IE...
Even if the WHATWG was working on HTML 12 right now, we'd still be stuck with HTML 4 quirks mode by default due to the sad state of one popular browser.
