We all think of them as Google but let’s face it, they’re DoubleClick.

Google feeds DoubleClick. Gmail does too. YouTube is a pure ad play.

Drive/Docs/etc. I’d say drives Chrome and undercuts competitors.

And Chrome? It drives Google. And Google also helps drive YouTube.

They all end in ads.

If Chrome wasn’t owned by an ad company that owned all that other stuff I wouldn’t be as worried. I still don’t like the idea of a Chrome monoculture. But if it was independent I’d be less alarmed.
