I think it’s a situation where Google already had the Perfect Product, but capitalism can’t just like, leave things be, no, there always has to be this fucking attempt to squeeze blood from the stones, and now they’re doing that but it’s entirely in vain entirely for no real purpose or end goal
Ed Zitron wrote a really good article about how Google was intentionally made shittier by their advertising division. They actually made their algorithm worse on purpose because it was working “too well” (ie: people were getting the results they wanted very quickly without having to scroll past stupid fucking advertisements).
Nobody wants any of this, literally every human alive just wants google to work like it did in 2010
Please think about the Shareholders 😭😭
I don’t even see how this benefits shareholders
