It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy eventually. As Google shuts down random services during fits of pique, they build a reputation for being mercurial and unreliable. And then when they actually need to see significant numbers to justify large projects (Stadia, GCP), they struggle to pull in users because nobody trusts them. Google eventually pulls the plug due to low adoption, and all consumers biases against relying on Google are validated.
