This is an issue that regulators need to address. Asking small businesses to forego the significant impact on their business of not implementing common features that users demand is not a good solution to public policy failures.

I don’t know what the exact revenue/growth difference is, but if my paycheque depended upon getting more users to sign up, I don’t think I could justify making it into a political stance when Google isn’t going to notice my tiny boycott.
