People are already testing ways around this, when will they just give up?

Like most other (publicly traded) companies, Google is a horrible piece of shit. They are only interested in increasing relatively short term profits to facilitate big paydays for executives and pumping the stock price like Austin Powers’ Swedish penis pump (that’s not mine, I would never use that, where’s the instruction manual). Apparently companies like this lack the foresight to see that their long term survival requires more than just the apathy of a large customer base. Think of them as the Comcast of next week. They will only stop if a) they are heavily regulated or b) alternative services force them to compete on actual competency rather than just max ads per minute. Google hasn’t run a good service in years in my opinion, and they should feel fucking ashamed of themselves.
TLDR: we admaxxing now. Godspeed to the devs of ublock etc, can’t wait to see what the boffins over there come up with next. If only Google put more of their time into running a good service and less into working out how to advertise vapes to children. Fuck sundar prichai and his stupid fucking smug face.

That would be actually terrible. The government shouldn’t be able to shutdown a billion dollar company. That’s how authoritarian governments work not democracies
