Speaking of phones.
I just had to buy new ones recently for the older folks at home because of the lack of VOLTE support on their phones. Those phones were perfectly fine and adequate for their use case (basic call, message) and they wouldn’t have to change phones if it were not for the 3G network termination.
Now they have new phones with functions that they will never ever use.
Changes to the online advertising market would make online ads less valuable for publishers and merchants, and less useful for consumers.
If by useful they meant anything that is heavily promoted by Google ads get added on the ‘will not touch with a 10 foot pole’ list. Sure, I guess?
Also hinting at changing their business models, raise the cost of devices, should chrome or android be forced to break up.
Google blog response is exactly why this breakup should happen. They are getting out of control.
My opinion is that with or without denuvo a good game or product will always sell itself.
Take Wukong black myth for example. Even without denuvo i believe it will still become a huge commerical success. Perhaps it would even have sold more units because there are people who simply refuse to buy any game no matter how good it is as long as it has denuvo.
Piracy definitely has an impact on mediocre game that is lacking in every aspect. But then again the average person who pirate is probably broke and is probably never going buying it anyway so 🤷♂️
