Stop hating on Google! Google is one of the few companies that provide quality services for end-users "for free".
- hpoe 6y agoYou're right all just "for free" don't mind them now slurping up your emails, tracking your locations at all times, recording your voice, and more. It's free. Don't worry about what's happening outside the Coliseum focus on the bread and circuses being passed out everything is fine.
- cwhiz 6y agoLegitimately, are you a paid Google employee?
- pb7 6y agoUnlikely. Google employees are paid too much to care what people on a forum think about the company.
- altgoogler 6y agoGoogler here. You might be surprised about what Google employees care about.

It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email us and we'll look at the data.
- RonanTheGrey 6y agoI mean, the very subject of this thread started with a description that contained no COVID keywords, so "related" must be interpreted (to me, unreasonably) broadly. Since there are no rules, and no published list of words you can't use, there's also no recourse. Irrational and irresponsible. Par for the course for Google, really.
