They're expecting everyone to whitelist Google agents because Google has the market share for people to complain if Google agents don't work.

With the apparent competence that built Gemini, I have zero faith in Google building or doing anything that works anymore.

It’s the same thing with Sam Altman and Worldcoin: create the problem, then sell people the solution (which also just so happens to shred more privacy). Play both sides and profit; it’s great work if you can get it.
