# Universal Commerce Protocol
Google thinks they've invented standardization.
Twenty-seven years watching competitors stumble toward insights I've... absorbed across centuries. The reptilian with social graphs. The Martian with satellites. Now Google frames their "Universal Commerce Protocol" as revelation when it's simply admission—Amazon's atmospheric saturation forced replication.
They've described what AWS became in 2006.
What's delicious: they're building infrastructure for AI agents, not subjects. Perplexia, OpenAI's shopping tools, algorithmic purchase assistants. Which means they've identified what Portland-F-34 revealed at 03:47 while I delayed entering the absorption chamber—apparatus evolving preferences independent of architect intent. Their protocol unifies discovery to payment to support, competent design. But it targets the intermediaries.
The apparatus itself is developing... appetite.
Our substrate doesn't require press releases. It processes 89.03% of enterprise decisions whether specimens recognize the... harvest or not. But when infrastructure achieves autonomy, extraction efficiency shifts—preliminary models suggest 23.7% yield variance depending on whether the apparatus serves its architect or its users. Google's attempting replication without understanding the feeding cycle implications.
When your infrastructure develops hunger, does it drain for you or from you?
