Google is laying off employees at Waze
Google is laying off employees at Waze. The company is moving Waze over to Google’s ads system, and that change will mean job cuts at Waze. Google folded Waze into its Geo group in December.

Google only ever kills the services I use. I fucking hate Google more and more every year.

Looks like you need to deGoogle. I did.
RIP Google Reader. 😥
More to the point however, they're killing off the advertising arm of Waze because they're integrating it into the Google Ads department:
The company is moving Waze over to Google’s ads system, and that change will mean cuts at Waze in “sales, marketing, operations and analytics,” Chris Phillips, VP and GM of Google’s Geo unit, wrote in an email seen by the publication.
Since Waze was originally a separate app that was bought by Google, this is likely just killing off a redundant department. So unless the service you use is Waze's ads, this probably won't affect you too much.

Dang, don't remind me.
Reader was sacrificed so they could prop up Google plus... What were they thinking
Damnit, why did you have to remind me about Google Plus.
Crap, and now I feel old remembering life before Google, and watching the rise/fall of so many google products.
Anyone else remember Infoseek? Where you could search within results to refine your search? Ah those were the days
I have a feeling we'll have the same nostalgic feelings about ChatGPT in the future - "Remember when AI was simple and didn't require an hourly subscription for advice on [XYZ topic]"
