Not that unreasonable I guess?
Even an App is free, it doesn't mean you can distribute it without permission? I would say the case apply to restaurants as well. I can see good restaurants leverage this to negotiate favorable terms with platforms.

I don't get it. What's the point of them saying that? Everybody knows they don't regret exploiting workers - if anything, they regret getting caught. Why have all this theater of pretending to care? Why use language like "deeply regret"? Who is this convincing?

Well, it is safe to say this is hot garbage then.
I would love Google to remove all the self entitled BS from this statement, so they can act as an everyday faceless big company which is anyway what it is doing, not some moral beacon for the mass to look up to.
The statement exists only to generate traffic for the news outlet for spinning.
It is at will employment, the company makes it clear what you have done there, they want to have a say on it.
If you want independence, goes to academia instead (though it is not easy to obtain it either)

They did develop GraalVM, which is quite a technical achievement, or so I've heard (not a user).
Well, Oracle bought Sun, and the team behind it.
I would be more in the mood to praise Oracle for this development, had they not shown how far they could go to hurt Java's community/ecosystem just to squeeze a penny out of it.
Honestly more curious about how does the FTC verifies the submitted report to be an accurate representation of what the company is actually executing?

Fantastic news.
Go Europe, we need an alternative to compete.
There are definitely sectors of the industry (such as manufacturing or insurance) where capital and automation drives value generation, but Google is in the business of writing software, which isn't really automatable.
I do think Google has good engineers, but they are really not that indispensable
