Yes to Google Bard, No to Google Director: Hypocrisy from a trashy corporation.

Google’s hypocrisy with the advertising policy against independent repair centers is evident. It’s baffling how they claim to protect users from scams while allowing ads for dangerous products. The AI-generated responses from Google bard are unconvincing and lack credibility when it comes to technical repair queries. It’s becoming increasingly clear that Google is no longer a trustworthy company. 🤔


So a few years ago, I did a video about Google and Advertiser discrimination around the same time that Google started to partner with repair shops around the country to create authorized repair services for their pixel series of smartphones they got rid of advertising for third-party repair centers. Now, David Graff, the Director of Global Product Policy at Google, has stated that Google wishes to protect their users from scams, resulting in their decision to continue blocking ads for third-party tech support providers. While, the search engine giant allows debatably controversial services such as “dick enhancement pills” and human trafficking on their platform. This can be perceived as contradictory and hypocritical. Therefore, it’s important to delve deeper into the situation and understand its implications.


I kind of understand why they allow these services on their website but not independent repair. Google doesn’t offer human trafficking or dick enhancement services, which seems perplexing. Banning the entire independent repair industry from your advertising platform with a very clearly bogus reason is just a typical monopolistic conduct. 👎


Prior to launching a discussion on this matter, it’s essential to understand key terms and technical jargon associated with tech manufacturing and repair processes.

So what are the implications of this shift in advertising priorities by Google for the tech community? This has led to the development in the field of Artificial Intelligence to better aid the dissemination of repair services and support to users. The emergence of AI Chat GPT and Google Bard allows for informative and professional discussions on topics of interest in the tech industry.


When we delve deeper into Google’s policies, it stands clear that its stance on independent repair advertising but simultaneously using repair content to train the AI is contradictory and raises ethical concerns.


I’m not against using AI, in fact, I believe in leveraging its capabilities to provide better solutions. But training their AI to support the notion that independent repair sustains scam practices while quoting the repair community as authoritative exposes them to be hypocritical.


It is important to acknowledge that the use of publicly available repair data to train AI is not the problem, the dishonesty in their stance on independent repair reflects poorly on their integrity.

Google’s disingenuous approach to promoting repair services in contradiction to their advertising policies for independent repair businesses raises questions about the integrity of its policies. 🧐


In the broader context, it is crucial to question the ethical and genuine practices employed by tech giants that are influencing the repair industry and the implications they have on the community.


Ultimately, the responsibility lies in the hands of the users and the industry to hold companies accountable and demand ethical and transparent practices. This stands as an example of the need for open conversations on the practices of tech giants.


In a broader view, addressing the ethical concerns and prioritizing genuine practices in the technology industry is crucial for sustainable growth and development as a community.


As we conclude, the video provides an insightful perspective on contradicting corporate practices and the need to demand transparency and accountability by tech giants like Google. 💡
