Definitely, they found another cash printer in Youtube but to be fair, they bought that. My comment wasn’t intended to be definitive. Yes, a lot of their other products are really just funnels to their search ads though. Strategic plays have value too of course.
They bought YouTube well over a decade ago in order to jumpstart their position in streaming, once Google Video failed to take hold, and nowadays the original YouTube would be unrecognizable. It's not like they didn't have the chops to build it, or the business acumen to make it profitable; they just acqui-hired a competitor in the space.
