Between their own browser and OS and their own services do not think they would be torn apart. It is not like their services would only work on Chrome or anything like that just better.
Really no different than any browser does proprietary things to make theirs work as well as possible.
But it does not matter. Google gave SPDY away as wanted to push the industry forward and how we got http2 so fast as they basically handed to the standards group not only complete but also since been using for a while they even had the data also to support the benefits.
Why so many companies adopted so quickly. If not for Google we be still debating this and that and not be getting the benefits of http2.
On Borg. Yes K8s is a rewrite from what was learned not only from Borg but another Google solution whose name escapes me.
The point is Google spent a lot of money building Borg and learned from mistakes and fixed and the knowledge gained is extremely valuable yet Google gave it away with K8s. Now Amazon, Microsoft and most other cloud players have it for free and do not have to invest into going through what Google had to in gaining the knowledge. For free and no strings attached and use to compete against Google.
Why? Because it helps move the entire industry forward. Google just looks at the broader tech industry very differently than Microsoft.
