    I wonder what’s in it for Shopify. This seems like an odd thing for them to sponsor, or a very expensive FU to Google.

      Well, it could be genuine altruism. But I doubt a web totally controlled by Google sounds good to a company that relies on the semi-open web for its business.

      This is a bit like Valve liking Linux I imagine.

        This does seem like a Tobi ideological thing, doesn’t it? Ugh.
