Google is an advertising company. Relying on them to do anything other than service that business seems risky at best given the abundant history of rug-pulling. Even then, at this point I'd be questioning the support for ads. Support can mean anything from customer support to not running the business into the ground with blunders.
Google is the new Yahoo and sliding into irrelevance. Layoffs like this cut the core engineering functions of a company. After a while it becomes harder and harder to innovate and create meaningful products. Offshore teams can never replicate or replace these functions. This is crazy and the executives are clueless. Bring back Larry and Sergey now before it’s too late!
