  • Ideal reality: Google doesn’t buy advantage from browsers to make their search engine the default. This way, other search engines can compete at the same level, right?

    Reality: browser developers will have their income cut down because now their main source of income is dead (see recent news on Mozilla).

    Usually these kinds of policies that may or may not come up out of goodwill results in unintended consequences that negatively affect others.

    The winner here are the politicians.


  • I’m with you on this.

    In this thread are people who screams monopoly, thinking they know what it means. One comment said Google is a monopoly, followed by “along with <other giant companies>”

    They’re giants because they’re successful and good at what they do. They’re successful because people are benefiting and find values from the products they use. The moment these giants stops “exploiting” people will be when they stop bringing values to society.

    They’ve confused economic reality with their own ideal reality.
