I guess you really don't have anything better to do.
What you said might be true if the only way these cameras stored data
was in "RAW" format. Fortunately, this is not the case.

Adobe does
have their Digital Negative .DNG, which is publicly
documented, the spec. available online and so forth. They push people to
convert their raw camera files to .DNG which is fine --- but of course
any proprietary extensions that Adobe doesn't reverse engineer or have a
corresponding field to is simply not copied and 'lost' in the conversion.
This is where Dave's "idiots" argument is completely cancelled. If your
camera spits out data in an indecipherable format, what choice do you
have? Only to boycott the manufacturer, and that hasn't seemed to work.
