This is the future; partially fuelled by malware, partially fuelled by the desire for platform control, and partially fuelled by government regulation.
I am so sick of Google.
This is a monopoly with annual gross revenues bigger than all but 42 countries behaving this way.
They have conspired to control the web, browsers, mobile computing, and soon AI. It's sickening how much bad behavior they get away with.
They were able to use YouTube to bludgeon Windows Phone to death and become the de-facto mobile duopoly. Then they were able to get their shitty search engine on all the panes of glass, didn't care one iota about search quality (just ads), but were able to leverage their browser engine control to remove adblocking capabilities.
I hope the DOJ/FTC split Google into a dozen companies.
Sincerely.
