Embrace, extend, extinguish is a very particular kind of monopolistic behavior. you're just listing people buying out their competitors. which to be clear, is also bad.

Embrace, extend, extinguish is when you have an open standard, which a company nominally embraces, and then adds unique features to their version that only interoperates with those using their product. Apple and SMS is a current example, since their reactions only work on iPhone. the Wikipedia article has plenty of examples from Microsoft. it's also quite likely that it's exactly what Facebook plans to do with activitypub.
