I would love to have whatever problems Google has, and if FOMO is how Google got to be/remain Google, please yes give me lots and lots of FOMO...

My point is that maybe one of the most successful companies on the planet might not be a good example for illustrating "disastrous company strategies".

I do agree, generally, with the article FWIW.

Google did not get to be where it is via FOMO.

Definitely not. They started with a good idea for search, and then they acquired a really good approach to selling ads. Everything else is a sideline, and most of those sidelines have lost money.

What is `FWIW`? For What It's Worth I guess?

Yes
