If they hadn't injected this credit you would see your CPMs decline and you'd be able to generate a better margin. Now your ad dollars have to compete with all of this free money until it runs out. You and I will receive no benef

The $340 million in Google Ads credits is self serving bullcrap. They are going to flood their ad markets with credits so that they can keep CPMs inflated so that the real advertisers have to continue paying inflated prices.

Mobile app developers need to gather install/purchase data so they can optimize user acquisition spend. Most are not using PII so I don’t see any problem.

Nice article. The flip side of the coin is that all these “problems” are potential moats for a well tuned ML company to use to defend market share.

Then the founders you’re spending time with are idiots. Making massive win/lose bets only makes sense if you’re diversifying across a portfolio.

I’m a bootstrapper and I also use a similar metholodology to this article. I only go niche if the larger addressable market is big enough. It might be okay if the initial niche offering only makes $5k its first year, but I should see some
