Is there a good article detailing how this works? Despite all the "dark side of tech" drama I still see Google as basically OK as a company. Some missteps, yes, but from my perspective, all I really know is they make a lot of great stuff that I use constantly because it's great. It's not obvious to me how they're involved in all of this.
