I know people like to hate on google, but google is actually like 3 companies in a trench coat.

They do highly valuable open source / open ecosystem work (I will say the chance of you indirectly using a google tool without knowing is over 90% now) and if the American government, a capitalist fascist government no less, gets their hands on it, we're fucked

Not all of google is adsense or YouTube.

I hope there’s no Google in my life.
