Any company that relies on Google search to drive revenue is in trouble: Chamath

“The longer it takes for Google to find a second act, the more you’re f—-d,”.

“If you are in the business of being a parasite on top of Google, your medium-term and long-term prospects are terrible; you’re an impaired company, you don’t know it,” [Chamath].
