Note that Google released information a week early, giving attackers a leg up in attacking these cloud providers, as opposed to Google giving the cloud providers the information immediately, which would have helped them defend themselves. But, surprise: Google is their competitor.

Google is basically the new Microsoft, except Microsoft could actually design working products when it was evil.



What's with these random jabs at companies, you are just trying to create a culture of irrational dislike. I don't even care if you attack Google but everytime you do so, you have to cite exactly why you are doing it. Not some nebulous "oh they cant even make a single working product" which is objectively false and just provocation.


One, you're attributing something I never said, and two, my actual claim is not objectively false. Three, I don't have to do anything, much less prove what is otherwise easy to find out via Googling. And four, it's not irrational dislike, it's dislike based on personal experience and observation. Five, it should be pretty obvious exactly why i'm attacking Google, it doesn't need citing (unless the reader can't put two and two together, vis a vie "Google uses its privileged embargo status to disseminate sensitive information in a way that harms its competitors")
