> No: Google actually has an illegal WalMart / AliBaba / Amazon competitor used ONLY by its voice assistant to get you stuff.

Could you possibly explain this a little further?? This is very interesting!

Google Express. A while ago they dropped all integration of Google’s voice assistant with other ways of maintaining a shopping list, and instead it adds those now to Google express, even if that’s not available in your country.

He was being sarcastic. Google Express is actually a partnership with many retailers. Kind of like an amazon for retailers

Yes, I thought I made this clear through the seven /sssssss's I included for those playing along.

Guess not! I'll spell it out. If you have a shed in your backyard, no, Google didn't install a toilet in it for you while charging your Google play account.
