    That sounds right. But it makes no practical sense. Everybody relies on Google search. That’s a huge part of what makes them powerful. They shouldn’t screw with it, and that’s not a moral statement about what they owe to users, it’s just about self-interest. Ruining your own base product is idiotic.

      Tell that to Google before they replaced the long standing head of its search engine, with the head of advertising.

      I never said that the way they’ve gone about it is the best way to have gone about it.

      Frankly, I’m not even sure what that would be, only that this ain’t it.
