@Skafantaris @AmyZenunim because spending a few salaries every now and then on crushing a rival is absolutely nothing, cost-wise, to an entity which can afford many developers just to come up with more convoluted APIs merely to render the website, to say nothing of actually running it.

@Skafantaris @AmyZenunim If you actually want to understand these entities, you have to understand that these entities are not individuals and thus do not have an individual's reasons about things. Even exceptional leaders cannot simply impose their will on structures, they can only truly grow structures. Facebook, Google, and others have grown structures which work, without even anyone's intention, to buy out, outcompete, or otherwise "dispose of" rivals, without any active malice required.
