I get your point but from a business perspective Google is doing pretty well (see last quarterly earning and they announced dividends for the first time). It’s good to be a shareholder and from that perspective the CEO is doing a good job.
Time and time again markets have shown, within reason, poor user experience and anti-consumer policies do not negatively impact stock price.
^This guy has an MBA
lol I don’t. The earnings report is public.
Well not when it’s a company that people can’t get away from. Big tech is so big and there are so few alternatives that they can treat people how they like.
We are living in the mega corp world now where they have more money than countries.
Money is power to make the rules what you want.
Yes, again I’m not saying that’s how it should be, I’m saying what is.
Enshittification won’t be a thing if actual user experience matters as much as we like it to in business.
Revenue is a lag indicator
Sure but Google Search has been crappy for many quarters.
I’m not saying thats how it should be, I’m just pointing out what is.
