Quote to Note: Google Friction in Happy Ad Land
September 9, 2015
Tucked into the business section of the September 7, 2015 New York Times was a story with the not too SEO friendly title “Competitors Say Google Is Slowing App Installation.” The write up is not indexed in Google News. I just checked.
The short item talks about mobile ads for apps. The article recycles a Google blog post which talks about penalizing “please, install our app” ads. Yikes. Penalties.
But for me the important item in the article was this quote, attributed to a Xoogler named Mike Dudas. He said:
This seems like a really strong move in deterring people from installing apps.
Ah, freedom. I too enjoy the smell of napalm in the morning. Wait. I have a question? Who is the enemy? Android centric developers? Do I hear the thump thump of choppers?
