Re: Disturbing
@ IAS:
"first Nexus phone? The one where Google sold the hardware direct, but hadn't put in place a service or returns department! "
"so people were getting a nice form delivered saying come to the post office to pick this up, along with your £50 import duty "
GoOgLized corporate response:
"We are not here to solve your problems, we're not a phone company, we're just connecting you to a point of sale. Service and Maintenance? No, we don't do that, you'll have to arrange that on your own. Oh, and taxes, we don't do taxes, that's your job,"
See, Uber "We're not a cab company" and AirBnB "We're not a hotel chain."
Welcome to the "Disruptive economy".
> I'm just surprised that the 2008 financial collapse wasn't wrapped up in that sort of commentary - it certainly would have been more true than the mythology they painted "We're not a bank, we're ........Ummm..... a gambling corporation."
