Google+ was not popular though, the whole point of forcing everyone to have G+ was to get MAU explosion to rival FB. Without it, they would not compete in enough time. It was a poor decision, and I agree as a consumer that this time period sucked. But I understand why the push was made. G+ only bet was to get everyone to use at once and right away. I don't agree with the assessment of someone losing their mind in this ordeal, it was the only option they had to otherwise be second bitch at best for perpetuity.
