Although RSS feeds are alive and still heavily used today, their level of adoption has suffered because of how difficult a handful of popular technology companies have made it to use them. Google, especially, has relied on the open web RSS protocol to gain so much market share and influence, but continues to engage in behavior that exploits the open web at the expense of its users. As a result, Google has single-handedly contributed to the reason many users who once relied on RSS feeds have stopped using them.

Chociaż kanały RSS są żywe i nadal intensywnie wykorzystywane, ich poziom adopcji ucierpiał z powodu tego, jak utrudniła korzystanie z nich garstka wielkich firm technologicznych. Zwłaszcza Google polegał na otwartym protokole RSS, aby zdobyć tak duży wpływ i udział na rynku, ale nadal angażuje się w zachowania, które wykorzystują otwartą sieć kosztem użytkowników. W rezultacie Google w pojedynkę przyczyniło się do tego, że wielu użytkowników, którzy kiedyś polegali na kanałach RSS, przestało z nich korzystać.
