wat?
What company is at a scale to buy Google and kill its cash cow of search advertising? And why would they?
- seiji 14y agoThought experiment: a company buying google (10, 20, 50 years hence) would be much bigger and may not care about tiny revenue streams.
- theorique 14y agoThat assumes that Google's search ad revenue, and perhaps their growing application service provider revenue, are going to be tiny relative to this hypothetical acquiring company's revenue. It seems absurd now, but on those timelines you could be right. If nothing else, a lot can change in 10-50 years.
