Read “Google could be paying Apple $20 billion a year to basically do nothing” on SmartNews: https://l.smartnews.com/p-tpS1r/N6VrLk
It is no secret that Google is paying Apple a ton of money to remain the default search engine for its products, like the iPhone, iPad, and Mac computers. This is why unless you specify differently, whenever you search using Safari, it will use Google’s search by default
It was previously estimated that Google was paying Apple as much as $10 billion a year, but according to financial analyst Berstein, it is believed that the number is much higher at around $18 to $20 billion a year for Apple to essentially do nothing.
If this sounds like an insanely lucrative deal, it is because it is, but it might not be something that could continue in the future. This isn’t because Google is unhappy with the amount they’re paying Apple (chances are Google is probably making more than whatever they’re paying Apple), but because of the Department of Justice in which they view it as anticompetitive behavior
My readers, because of the problem I had with my domain recently, I am committed to paying down the domain and the space here on WordPress where I have been for a very long time down for very many years to come. I am committed to this life. This is my life. And no matter what else I do to make money, I will always endeavor for the human spirit especially in the age of AI(and its potentiality as weaponry, civil rights, individualized and targeted abuse). Please be a part of this determined humanizing endeavor by donating towards this effort today. Thank you..
