Ask HN: Why is HN so obsessed with Google?

9 points by rosstaylor90 7 years ago | 2 comments

So many top articles recently are about a Google product, a startup doing their own “privacy-first” version of a Google product, or someone talking about a Google product.

Why the obsession/hatred? Are they really as bad as 90s Microsoft?

A lot of former Google fanboys I would say, they are only now realising what everyone else knew all along, Google doesn't care about them and they are simply a dollar sign to Google.
