I’m worried that antitrust action legitimizes Google as synonymous with the Internet. I’d rather see Google continue their race to the bottom and join the likes of CompuServe/AOL. It’s only a matter of time before competing services make Google irrelevant. It was hard to fathom 10-15 years ago that someone could come along and challenge them. Now as they take more and more measures like AMP it feels like it is ripe for someone to come along and make Google’s results feel like the new AltaVista/Yahoo in comparison.
The Internet is vast and wide and the lens through Google/Twitter/Facebook, et al, which many see it is getting foggy. A time will come when we look back at this era and see it as the growing pains from the massive transition to a globally connected world.
