This is kinda like saying, "The Vietnam War was a success. After all, it kept Indonesia from turning Communist."

Well that's kind of a brutal example, but I agree with the comparison. Indeed, G+ was successful for Google zealots and their bottom line. And in turn, to some extent, the shareholders.

Wait what impact did the Vietnam War have on Indonesia? I've never seen this documentary

Who's going to show a documentary like that?

I have seen articles claiming all sorts of "benefits" of the War, and I believe that was one of them. The coup of 1965, which massacred a million "Communists" was in there.
