originally, google did care about doing useful stuff. over time, making money became more important but they at least tried to keep the illusion that the "customer" was the user of their software/services.

at this point, they are giving up any pretense of being in service to anyone other than stockholders and advertisers. being of use to end users doesn't exist for them as a concept.

It was just too tempting.
