It's also more likely to be seen by other big Google customers, who might be convinced to put additional pressure on Google. And it might be noticed by other large news publications. If Google is alienating customers who spend almost $1M/year, they may have deep systemic issues that require a significant course correction. That would need to happen at the highest levels of the company.
