    There’s a good article about how a few years ago the search division at Google rolled out improvements to search but then the ad division complained that revenue was being impacted because people spent less time looking through search results and thus ended up seeing and clicking fewer ads. The executives came out on the side of the ad division and Google rolled back a bunch of those improvement apparently.

    I guess this mostly came out in some court case where a bunch of emails about it were released
