But it's not about how good the Google's ML models are, you're missing the point! It's about Google being the huge many-headed monster with tentacles.
You can't use part of Google service without being entangled in their new protocols, the way they code and build things, run operating systems or servers, browse the web, and so on. You have to run your business the Google way now. The most scary part of this - the monster is completely deaf. Cry as much as you like, it's not going to listen. Even if you bring thousands of gifts to it every day, you can be erased from the web in an instant, and it won't even notice.
It's not too evil (yet!) but it has so much power it's scary.
