- barbazoo 3y agoAre they? At least Google doesn't seem to be.
- peanuty1 3y agoGoogle has said they will block news once the law is in effect.
- sqeaky 3y agoIs that a bluff or not? Would Canada actually prefer it one way or the other? What is the cost of making a Canadian team to tune results to Canada's laws? Is that less than possible earnings? Are all people equally valuable to Google or are people in wealthy nations worth proportionally more. What if other countries follow suit?
- tamiral 3y agonews is already blocked on Meta owned companies.
- red_trumpet 3y agoI guess that Google news brings in a lot less revenue than Google search. So might it be possible that the trade-offs are different?
- rogerkirkness 3y agoGoogle is planning to remove news from search in Canada as well.
