Closing Down Sale....
Google has become such a contentious corp that its a turn-off to consumers in much the same way as Microsoft's dictatorial behavioral left the door open to Google in the anti-trust years.
Distrust has hurt Facebook too btw. Oculus sales are lower than what was expected vs competing VR. Zuck postponed his smart speaker range too.
Distrust and disdain for Google / Facebook / Microsoft runs deep. I predict moving into retail won't be a big earner for Google despite plundering HTC.
Don't get me wrong... Slurpy Smart Tech is selling ok in America overall, it just isn't doing as well elsewhere in the World... Cali's new privacy law (if it passes) will be problem for Silly 'con' Valley as well.
