    Google really loves to change logos/icons of their stuff.

    Ah yes, because what was wrong with Google was their logo was old.

    Look we fixed it, everything is better now.

        Christ. I’m not.

        If I were and the marketing director came to me with the opportunity to grow our brand equity with an $x million logo redesign, I’d offer them the opportunity to tender their resignation effective immediately.

        Given how most executives operate, I’m obviously not executive material.

      I can’t see the photo but the logo change was just a blend of the colors next to each other instead of lines. Old on left…

            Yes, the app icons are horrible. You can’t “scan” them anymore at a glance. They all just look like exploded clown.

    Will they change their business practices to respect their users’ privacy though?

    Spoiler: they won’t - if they did they’d go bankrupt in a matter of months.
