I think Google just went too far on this one, too soon. You know, the whole thing about slowly boiling the frog and all that.
They had to speed things up, not only Sergey Brin is back at Google's headquarters, other SV companies are going deep into the identity realm, that directly clashes with Alphabet identity exploitation, same for Meta, these companies largely payed to win the "digital identity dilemma" but things will change pretty fast over the next 2 years. Sam Altman WorldCoin and Musk's X platform should be the telltale but people are missing the clues?
thats right boiling frogs with a blowtorch, is actually a roasting.
Almost like this whole thing is pretty universally bad for everyone but Google.
They only like it when they are the ones doing it. Nothing new here.
