Epic, the maker of the popular Fortnite game, is seeking to show that executives at the Alphabet Inc. unit were eager to discourage the proliferation of third-party app stores that would cut into Google Play’s operating profit.
At this point I don’t think I should have degoogled my life, I should have just gotten Google to pay me to continue to use their products. Given the what they’re paying everyone else, I must be worth at least a few hundred dollars a year.
Probs get down votes, but look up data latte, you can put your data on the blockchain (anonymized) and get paid if somebody buys it, eg for market research.
Which essentially is what Google does. Sells your data to the market
It’s an idea to play with… I dont think the specifics are all ironed out, but maybe with more building and more ideas would we control our data and earn from it like the corporations do.
The pure data isn’t sitting on the blockchain itself, but in a ipfs or something similar. But the contracts and tokens allow you to automate it and own it/give out access to it to a certain extent.
Its a small project, but I like the idea, could be something.
You can go pretty far with that analogy. A docker container is just a glorified zip folder in a kubernetes cluster. Yes sure you get some of its functionality, but you’re missing quite a bit.
Technically based on how much you’d need to pay for the different services to replace Google it kind of works out? Eg. It’s the price you’re paying for free Gmail, search, calendar, etc etc.

You can get Google to pay you through Play Rewards!
You are, but you’re not getting it.

Seems like yet another survey rewards site except maybe with blockchain and dollars
You can download your Spotify data for example and get rewarded for it.
Hmm, where would you sell it to?
Data market

Have a longer think on that. Interoperability with receipts and a programming language. Sounds like it could go somewhere.

Data latte. Sorry I mistyped earlier.
Hmm interesting, it seems blockchain is everywhere. Thanks for the info!
