Very good explanation, but there was one point that confused me. How is it that Google is profit diversified? … Google is so broadly diversified and ingrained that there's no conceivable scenario where the decline could be rapid. … I thought that almost all of Googles profits were derived from advertising through a few channels of free services. I would think that the barriers to entry for that business model are not that insurmountable.
