Because they are an ad company and ads revenue has nothing to do with your satisfaction.

- kempbellt 7y agoNot sure why this was downvoted - except maybe the "nothing to do with your satisfaction" part being a bit over exaggerated. Google's priority is ad rev. Everything else is secondary. It's like being an airplane engineer for a living, making great money, and then promising your neighbor that you'll fix the brakes on their car for 20 bucks. Maybe...one day, when you're bored, you'll get around to it, but it's definitely not your priority.
- StreamBright 7y ago> Google's priority is ad rev. Everything else is secondary. Exactly my point. Even your user experience, privacy, security, developer experience is secondary. There are many examples of these being ignored on the internet. I gave up on Android because of the broken UX. I cannot just keep turning off spellcheck on my phone/tablet after every Android update when it resets back to the defaults. iOS has much better UX from this point of view, I "waste" significantly less time on fighting with the OS.
