At least you know from start what you sign up for, not find out about it after 10 years transition from “Don’t be evil” to doing mostly evil stuff.

Actually they too had somewhat different propaganda 10 and 20 years ago, partially aimed at geeks etc, however weird that may seem now.

I agree that they were and are aiming for minorities, like their logo was a rainbow for decades. They do it to give some sort of exclusiveness to the brand by being inclusive.

At lest they’re consistant for me and don’t change their minds to much over the years. They are now forced to make changes because government lobbying against them what I’d say is more evil than everything on this planet. For example maybe I don’t want to use USB-C, maybe I want to sit naked in my house build from shit, eating peanut butter from my ass in the middle of nowhere with my own solar panel but government bans me from doing it because some people say it’s bad for you. More bad than stuff I’m allowed to do like buy bleach and drink it.

Well I got what I paid for and I wish all people get that feeling and stop forcing other people to use something because they think it’s better to do it their way. I want it my way - like Frank Sinatra once said.

But they do. Say, they were pretty supportive of people storing actual files locally and opposed to subscription models. Now it’s different.

And then they were kinda supportive of FOSS (loud about MacOSX being a Unix, forking KHTML). That changed.

And they of course like to claim they don’t spy on you, but they just spy as much as they need.

They also benefit quite a lot from governments supporting their claims about rounded corners.

OK.
