Google kind of seems like some jerks for pulling the carpet out from under us during the pandemic, after happily getting us hooked for 14 years.
Can't the Googlers, with their massive brain power, automate the email service completely so nobody has to think about it ever again? Why does every previously net-good thing that Ruth Porat finds need to be milked dry? The cow grows increasingly thin and tired.
