AdGuard for Android is a powerful app that blocks ads and protects your privacy. But why it's not available on the Google Play Store? Read on to find out.
The article is AdGuard centric but it sheds light on the whole process where Google suddenly decided to ban ad blockers.
Google literally considers itself an ad company. They have a huge framework meant to profit off of ads shown on other products and platforms. They sell data as a service to better target consumers for advertisement. It’s not comparable to a tv channel.
All of googles products except cloud exist to either sell customer data to companies to advertise to or they direct you to websites who pay.
They are an ad data company. Search is a means to deliver ads. Chrome, mail, docs, etc were all there for ecosystem lock in… for what money? Customer data. For ads. Google+? User base. For ads.
Youtube doesnt make them shit except for advertising. Youtube premium isnt selling which is why they are getting aggressive with it.
Google is an advertising company and secondarily , a cloud provider.
Yeah but Google biggest services are mostly free. The main source of income, although they have improved that by offering other paid services all these years, has been ad revenue on their free services.
i’m sorry but i have to be pedantic here. it’s not how you get your revenue it’s the good or service you provide.
magazines are not ad companies. TV channels are not ad companies. the source of your revenue does not make you a company in a sector of that source.
