That ship has sailed. Google's reputation for instability can't get any worse. At this point, it would take a complete 180° and a good 5-10 years of angelic behavior from Google for me to even consider relying on them in any capacity.

I was going to say the same. The reputational damage is significant if Google is actively trying to change their reputation, but zero if not.

gmail is still nice. I wonder when they are going to "work" on that.

i stll giggle at my ignorance thinking they wouldnt do youtube and search.

i really mis search, it was such a nice product. Now it is so bad that internet natives who could slap together a website in 20 min dont understand when i ask them why they have no website of their own. "you mean like a resume?"

they are right of course. no one would ever find it.
