Imagine a world where it's illegal to grow crops unless you use a particular brand of seeds. Nobody is forcing you to make cereal, but you're going to have a bad time if you can't get the needed components for it.

It's not that far off base, either. Heard of Monsanto? Google is basically going down the same path.
