I think that is the way Google trade/deals business “kooperationpartner”. I think it’s their strategy on

I think it was not intended at first by google. It was the initiative of the organizer since google is sponsoring the event.

I am stunned. Literally, stunned.

Not at the hypocrisy, which I expect, but at how blatant it is.
