Amen. This was what stopped me from paying Google anything. Canceled premium, moved off drive, off Gmail. It's unethical to give them money or watch their ads. The company needs to fail.

They're too big to fail. Any amount of fine anyone can slap on them is just peanuts for them. They would rather break the law and use part of the gains to battle it out in court and push their opponents to bankruptcy. They have so much money that they can't help but spend it on subjugating the rule of law.

They have to be broken up. Broken up into a hundred different companies and spread around the world with restrictions on interacting with each other.

I agree. Even though they're just going to reconglomerate like Terminator 2/AT&T, we need to keep smashing them before they ruin it all.
