In the old days, corporate rebels could almost secretly - but often simply openly and casually - run special projects to create new and innovative software.

Modern software processes make this impossible. It would be deeply frowned upon, likely a sacking offence, to create software outside the tightly controlled process.

Does this mean anything? I don’t know. But what it does mean is any company that runs an organized process has no chance of “random innovation”. That concept, which was common in “the old days”, is gone.

Modern organized software development kills innovation.

I.e sites that are not companies and not trying to sell anything? Presumably advertisements are ok.
