I know very little about the operating structure of Google, but I wonder how this would work functionally. Doesn't most of their revenue come from ads? So like you couldn't have google search's ad business help to prop up the lines of business that don't make money (Youtube, chrome development)
I'm not anti-breakup but I just wonder if this would imperil some of their lines of business. Like would Youtube shove even more ads down your throat post-breakup?

Had my run crushed by violet vessel yesterday. My revenge is going to be swift
Does that invalidate his point regarding enshittification?
I think it might matter if Cory came out and said, I am starting an org with the resources to fix it. But I don’t see how this tidbit is relevant for a guy who coined the term about what’s happening here and has been beating the drum about the problem.

You won’t find that here. But I won’t be silenced about the dumb shit Dems do. Luckily it seems to be happening less this go around. Enabling the genocide in Gaza is still very bad and Biden’s administration (and possibly, by extension, Harris’s campaign) should be criticized heavily for it
How long until he chides someone for being a fascist enabler for not being a Democrat bootlicker?
I can’t stand the “never criticize a dem or you’re helping the republicans” crowd, it’s how we ended up where we are now. Dems got complacent and ratcheted to the right to appease a “broader base” (how did that work out?)… give the people strong social policies and you will win in landslides
Stop spending money on lawsuits
I took “breaking up Google” to mean the Alphabet suite of companies; I had presumed “Google” was just shorthand for “Alphabet”. But I might be wrong
