> Super smart view. What's worse is when google (or other FAANGs) gets into a new product area, it in-effect suppresses development in the marketplace because very few people are brave/stupid enough to challenge a trillion dollar behemoth.
Is that actually true though? Googles forays into many markets were usually so horrible and clumsy that better companies could just use the media attention garnered to push their superior products.
Most Google beta products usually lack fundamental features, are geoblocked and completely ignore user voice. I haven't seen many of them really thrive over their better managed competition.
