These are more because they basically fizzled out or the company they were working with decided to stop working with them rather than just shutting down services that people use unlike Google. Once again seems like a Firefox hit piece similar to others that have been cropping up everywhere

Most of the services Google kills are also because they “fizzled out”. If you scroll through the Killed by Google site, a lot of the stuff listed there were test apps or small-scale experiments that most people never heard about or cared to try, like all the apps under Area 120. There are a few high-profile examples (Reader, Stadia, etc) but they’re definitely not the majority, same as Mozilla.
