What Google Cloud product has been shutdown prematurely? You still mad about the Google RSS reader?
- Karunamon 6y agoGoogle seemingly kills more products than they run and I wouldn't rely on them for any aspect of my business, based on this, and their historically awful CS. The petty snipe is not necessary or appreciated.

- manigandham 6y agoThat was never a part of Google Cloud. It was a feature of Chrome browser/OS and allowed for sharing printers over the internet because of the limitations back in 2010. Google has a terrible reputation with consumer services but has been pretty decent with Google Cloud so far. The biggest negative example would be Google Maps pricing changes but that seems to be different class of issue.
- KronisLV 6y agoThere was a thread the other day that mentioned a variety of products that were killed by Google, which were aggregated here: https://killedbygoogle.com/ https://killedbygoogle.com/ There was also a similar one for Mozilla: https://killedbymozilla.com/ https://killedbymozilla.com/ Perhaps they were being weary due to the practices the entirety of the company has displayed in the past, in regards to killing off products. Not sure about Google Cloud in particular, though.
