I think that it is fair to criticize a company that makes it harder to make 
websites.  E.g., a company that produces a browser that supports a lot of 
new proprietary features while failing to meet long-established standards 
(Microsoft IE 5.5/Windows), or a company that fails to ship a browser that 
meets the standards in a reasonable time (AOL Netscape).
