Re:Google's shortened goo.gl links will stop working next month by jlarocco on Saturday July 26, 2025 @12:15PM (#44695164)
Well, is the free market going anywhere?

Who's lost out at the end of the day? People who didn't understand the free market and lost access to these "free" services? Or people who knew what would happen and avoided them? My links are still working...

There are digitial public goods (like Wikipedia) that are intended to stick around forever with free access, but Google isn't one of them.

There are no comments on this comment yet.
