Your monitor has software, as does basically everything built lately significantly more complicated than a fan.

My fan is quite advanced. It has "night" and "natural breeze" modes, for example, and it was the cheapest one at Costco last year.

The topic is around stickiness of software.

What does your monitor have that make it sticky?

Television screens do have sticky features, my rule applies there too.

To clarify this: Closed Source Proprietary software is fine as long as it is easily interchangeable/inter-operable with similar competing software.
