  Inferior products can still be popular, how surprising. Seriously though, the only actually valuable thing Google has at this point is its market share.

    Given it's an inferior product, weird how nobody's come and made something better and eaten Google's lunch, isn't it?

      Network effect; can’t really compete until the current monopoly is solved. Also it’s disputable whether a business model based on invading peoples privacy should be legal.

        What does Google have a monopoly over? (Hint: nothing)
        • trasz 4y ago
          Every market it's still in, from search to mail. Google can't compete on markets it doesn't already have monopoly; see... well, see the vast majority of its products.
