They use an incremental rollout system for essentially every feature. Are you suggesting every feature of every product Google makes has some nefarious purpose?
What a wonderful example of a Fallacy of Division. It is true that A/B testing and incremental rollout are both used by Google for non-nefarious purposes, but that does not mean that every use is benign or innocent.
You made it sound like A/B testing us inherently shady. Just own up to it FFS.
I didn't, I specified an architecture that they use for a shady practice. It was a means for describing an activity, a shorthand to be used for greater clarity along with brevity. Your interpretations are outside of my control.
It would be no more me saying that Snapchat as a whole is shady to say that it is used to sell drugs, or a large variety of other similar statements.
