They aren't sabotaging it by not adopting it. That's just called... not adopting some arbitrary spec. Being published by the IETF doesn't mean anything. The IETF has a spec for SIMPLE, too. Should we blame all XMPP networks for sabotaging that "standard"? Why should a third party have to do something just because you don't like how they run their own networks?

Oh, really? Inaction can be damaging as well. In this case - it's sabotage. Since you bring SIMPLE, which of these major closed networks support it?
