That's all I needed to see before making up my mind, Google needs to be broken up, or alphabet or whatever they're calling themselves these days. Advertising needs to become a separate company, not managed by anyone with controlling stakes in google and visa versa.

I think advertising needs to be broken into several competing companies. Otherwise it is just spinning off the most profitable part of the company as its own standalone monopoly, and leaving the services users find useful as businesses without revenue streams.

I think advertising needs to be separated from data collection and other assaults on privacy.

Facebook/Meta is a very large advertising company. And it isn’t the only one.
