But it’s done in a way that gives you value as a customer.
Not in my experience. I tried really hard for a while to "buy in" to the Google ecosystem a few years ago. But the data accuracy was too low, the Google Location Services WiFi triangulation actually made navigation significantly less accurate, the Nest thermostat kept learning stupid patterns where it would turn my A/C down to 68 for like 10 minutes, then up to 82, just because of a couple of days with odd weather, they use dark patterns to trick you into enabling data collection features, Play Music makes it really hard to, you know, play my music, and they still keep discontinuing, breaking, or hiding features in apps like Maps. Last time I was going somewhere it took me ten minutes to figure out where they'd moved Offline Maps.
