Whoever tries to paint this as an L for El Salvador is leaning towards a communistic attitude.
If anything, this marks a great win for the economic potential available to the people who (want to) live there.

Google has a lot of pull. I can't help but feel like this poses a potential risk to the anonymity that bitcoin provides.
Meanwhile anyone can buy a Pixel from Google & flash graphene or Calyx on it...
Good point. 👍🤷♂️
If that's the case than it just seems like Google is trying to stick around for a bit longer since the U.S. empire is beginning to crumble.
Why do you think the US is crumbling?
If it doesn't crumble, then it is restructuring. Nothing lasts forever. Empires are no exception. Is this sarcasm? 🤔 I'm new to social media. It can be too easy to take things out of context, I've learned.
I'm just curious how you view things, haven't stated my opinion.
Ok. Well, this is why I view El Salvadors partnering with Google as more of a humble surrendering on the corporation's behalf. They don't need Google to perform transactions. El Salvador knows this. They've been doing it for awhile already!
Google will never admit this, but, they're at the end of their road.

I do not agree with you, but I understand your perspective.
Maybe, or maybe they are concerned for El Salvador since Google is so closely tied to the U.S. national security State and maintains close ties with DARPA.
