I do, for two reasons. One, Google's culture and managerial system is pretty poor, in such a way that it rewards starting things and not finishing them. That hurts consumers. Two, it feels contrary to the design of public corporations. Should Google be allowed by its owners to spend money trying out hundreds of new ideas? Or should it give profits back to shareholders who can then go do these things themselves while Google just tries to be come a really efficient, and insanely profitable search provider?

I'd advocate for the latter as a healthier way to run society with fewer tech giants of lovecraftian size slipping their tentacles into every cranny that one can stuff a million dollars into.
