Got a link? I'd like to read more.
The theory is at least plausible given what we see. They'll kill many products that seem viable, and would help diversify their revenue stream. Does Google really place no premium at all on that?
For example, killing Stadia after only a few years, while predictable for Google, is still a head scratcher to me. Building a platform and letting other companies (in this case, game studios) take the big risks on what will sink and what will swim, is a hugely privileged position to be in. Why did they kill it when others are moving into the space?
