FUD factor

(Fear Uncertainty Doubt factor) A marketing strategy used by a dominant or privileged organization that restrains competition by introducing suspicion and uncertainty into the marketplace. It is usually done by not revealing future plans or by changing them frequently, which presents a moving target for competitors. Thus, customers are persuaded to believe that products from competing vendors will not interface properly with the hardware or software from the dominant vendor.
