From the article:
“How do I say it?” Pichai began his measured response. “Look, I hope all of you are reading the news, externally. The fact that you know, we are being a bit more responsible through one of the toughest macroeconomic conditions underway in the past decade, I think it’s important that as a company, we pull together to get through moments like this.”
Basically they are gonna downsize despite sitting on a mountain of cash. Apparently this is because of the macroeconomic climate and slow growth. Could just be an excuse but it seems believable there is some truth as well.

Amazon is pretty high up there as well.

Eh. I can conceptually imagine a socialist version of Amazon powered by renewable energy and making efficient use of resources and letting employees have their labor rights. Capitalism is the primary problem with Amazon.

Another reason why capitalism makes Amazon problematic is the consumer culture. In socialism people should still be able to get things in just a few days, they should just have less of a want for unnecessary things.
They also like to cozy up to the CIA.
I’m sure he also won’t be downsizing any of his multi-million dollar mansions.
Meanwhile in the People’s Republic: vast material abundance go brrr

I feel guilt when I still use Google but I use ad block. It’s still a product or theirs this is useful enough to my life that I couldn’t replace without putting some effort into configuring SearX… so I don’t like them having that power.
You could use https://startpage.com if you just want the Google search engine through a proxy, without (according to Startpage, at least) being tracked by Google
Thnx for this. Works perfetly on brave.
