Alphabet, that uber-Google. Does this change is symbolic? – Gazeta.pl

1. The hypothesis symbolic

alphabet, a collection of all the letters, all of which can be folded all human knowledge. Alpha and omega – the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet, has long symbolized God and perfection. A domain Google Alphabet has been around for years, managing access to human knowledge. Changing the name in this case may be symbolic. It can also be interpreted as approaching – and has long been announced – change the behavior of search engines, in which the algorithms will understand the context of expression. Remember what we new products have been introduced recently to Google Now .



2. The hypothesis pragmatic

Or maybe she does not need to consider changes to the structure in the context of the symbolic? Maybe it’s simply to avoid tax and legal troubles. Just remember the objections that Google reported to the European Commission alleging that the company excessively uses its monopoly .

Yes, Goole is a monopolist. Alphabet But not anymore. In this way the company opens the way for further acquisitions. Something does not fit the model of Google? Does not matter. To Alphabetu can match. The more that the portfolio are already so “exotic” companies as the creators of robots (Boston Dynamics), scientists working on the prolongation of human life (Calico) or smart thermostat (Nest).



3. Hypothesis Tax

Google shares after the announcement of the restructuring of jumped by 7%, a capitalization of more than $ 430 billion. However, Google does not pay dividends to its shareholders and – like other big companies – quite creatively avoid paying high taxes. Is it possible that all this earthquake is related to the desire to save enormous sums of money on taxes? That can not be excluded.

To which tends hypothesis to? Because even though this symbolic acts much more the imagination, it is both the other more explain. In the end you do not know what’s going on, it’s about the money.
