Lmao who is this "terrifying" for? Google stock holders?

Or maybe ANY other company that ever wants to use snippets online.

This is a classic tactic - pick a fight with the baddest dude in the room and take him down, then nobody else will challenge you.

Google was the baddest dude in town, and now nobody will challenge this law.

Which, rather ironically, means that Google will have FEWER challengers in the future.

So, yeah, “terrifying” is a perfect word for the OP to use here.

You like this because it harms Google. I get it.

But the principle and it's implications you have considered deeply and have no issue with them?
