Google only ever kills the services I use. I fucking hate Google more and more every year.
it's such a fucking sick philosophy. imagine having that much money and might and still killing anything useful and not even able to sustain the quality of fucking search
Looks like you need to deGoogle. I did.
RIP Google Reader. Feedly is nice, but I still liked my plain simple Google Reader
Dang, don't remind me.
Reader was sacrificed so they could prop up Google plus... What were they thinking
RIP Google Reader. 😥
More to the point however, they're killing off the advertising arm of Waze because they're integrating it into the Google Ads department:
Since Waze was originally a separate app that was bought by Google, this is likely just killing off a redundant department. So unless the service you use is Waze's ads, this probably won't affect you too much.
