- gozo 11y agoYes? They suffer from the gulf state problem where they make so much money from one thing that nothing else will ever be important enough to really be successful.
- coldtea 11y agoEven taking indirect advertising profit into question, they've failed at basically everything. E.g. with all the billions developing Android, buying Motorola etc, they still make the large majority of mobile ad money on iOS devices!
