Could be the straw that broke the camel's back.

I actually hate rebranding by itself too. I see a totally new name as just trying to escape their bad name, likely earned by their previous misdeeds.

Pretty sure both of those were for financial reasons (easier reporting requirements etc). As in, both Google and Facebook the companies still exist, it's just that they are now owned (along with other companies such as Waymo and Instagram etc) by Alphabet and Meta respectively.
