I don't see how this is related to Google killing G+. The only thing it explains is from now on if OEMs in EU want to bundle Google Apps in their phones they'll have to pay.
ReplyDeleteHalfey Halphstein do you see any adds on Google +? Google is not making any money with it.
ReplyDeleteRobert Clark Hence why I think it's unrelated. The reason Google bundles their apps is they make money from them via ads. If G+ wasn't making money this unbundling would not have made any difference anyway.
ReplyDeleteHalfey Halphstein the Goog does not want to accept the risk Google+ presents without turning revenue.
ReplyDeleteRobert Clark no one is making money on the ads because immediatly someone starts a comment war in the ad's comments for some reason. Then people parcitipate and ugh
ReplyDeleteLuke Almanza that is how the money is made. Everytime the add is seen advertisers have to pay. Everytime an add is mentioned it is added to the stream. And the circle continues.
ReplyDeleteRobert Clark all the free information we provide for them? Of course the make money from G+
