I’m not excited for it because when (enter any large corporation) enters a space like this, they are not doing so through altruism. They want to dominate and profit. They have resources to bury their competitors and have shown eagerness to do so (points at everything). They are looking to slowly grab a monopoly of traffic and try to onboard more people to their platform with false promises. Plain and simple, I don’t trust them.
