Hate? Ehhhh, no.
At least, no more than I hate any monolithic megacorp. You can't really hate something that empty.
I mean, fuck Google, but trying to hate it is like trying to hate wind. Yeah, we could all get together and figure out a way to keep it from blowing, but you aren't going to do so without a lot more work than people are willing to put in.
Most of Google's apps work fine. Most of their services work smoothly. It's the stuff they tack onto that that makes them hated, and it's why I limit my use of their products. That is, however, a matter of choosing lesser evils far too often because all of the businesses in the same fields are also shitty.
If I was to waste hate on Google, it would be to their ceo and any board members. They're the ones that make the company hateable.
