But is Maps actually a net loss for Google, or are they using Hollywood-style accounting techniques to make it <i>appear</i> unprofitable as an additional disincentive to the lawsuits that AlbertCory mentioned?
- AlbertCory 3y ago> are they using Hollywood-style accounting techniques there's no need. Whereas individual movies do need a fake P&L, Google doesn't report Maps P&L at all. AFAIK.
- izacus 3y agoIt's a massive net loss for Google, where do you think there revenue there would come from? A few API users don't pay for a massive amount of people working on keeping the map data up to date.
