have you ever experienced vendor lock-in from a Chinese product? how often from a product not sold by an American firm? is vendor lock-in an usually American business model?

not uniquely. spotify has obviously gone for lock-in via two-sided marketplace network effects.

@interfluidity I'd expect the chinese to be more clever and play the long game, so i would expect the lock in to not be all that obvious in many cases. Energy equipment chips that work fine for now?
