Google are so needlessly hostile to people that root, what the fuck does sending messages have to do with having elevated permissions on a phone?!

This guy looks like AI.

When greed backfires it’s glorious! Plus the more streaming services pop up, the more people will pirate; we’ve regressed back into the cable TV era all because the suits are greedy bastards and deserve to lose every subscriber.

Yeah but 1,900 staff, come the fuck on that’s a mass exodus not a layoff. I’m in a company of 300+ people and it’s a HUGE number of people, I can hardly process over 6x as many layoffs…

This only in the EU thing is going to bite them in the ass hard. You’re going to get App developers pretending to operate in the EU or moving there just to have more creative freedom.

Unpopular Opinion: I don’t like ads as much as anyone, I’d rather YouTube monetises 1440p and 4k content instead of forcing people to watch ads. YouTube is an extremely expensive business to run, so it being free forever is completely unsustainable.

This is insane! It’s like prosecuting a postman for delivering child porn content to a customer.

All it’s done is run their reputation into the ground. Trash company run by trash human beings.

The only tech I want in my car is satellite navigation, Bluetooth audio and Bluetooth calling support. Anything else is fluff.

Why don’t they just actually give their actual reason: to spy on UK citizens.

To use children and criminals as a scapegoat for this attrocity is disgusting.

I’m sure if it was a $2.5bn fine, they’d be much more careful about customer privacy going forwards…

True, but it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t preserve them just the same.

Pretty sure Apple still charges £300 😂
