You are claiming knowledge of Google's true motives for this change without evidence. More importantly, making allegations about Gerrit De Vynck's motives, mindset and competence without evidence, while De Vynck presents evidence in the articles - not enough evidence to remove all doubt (newspapers are not academic papers), but certainly more than you are presenting here. The style of your posts gives the impression that you think your allegations are either self-evident facts or follow from them, but whether or not that is how you feel about them, I'm not buying it without better evidence - and if anything, ending with "it comes across as incredibly childish and manipulative" makes it seem less likely that your conclusions can be supported by dispassionate reasoning from objective facts.
