About the same as Skype slowing crippling the integrated Skype on the N900 by slowing incrementing the protocols in use as they've been doing so far in their attempts to enable video calling on iPhone/Android.

iPhone and Android Skype users still can't see my N900 video feed even though their clients claim to see me as video capable specifically because of behind the scenes protocols tweaks.

Likewise I've never been able to see their video feeds, but who wants to look at iPhone/Android users anyway?
