    What it sounds like is that in BigGo, exposure matters a lot, which is not very surprising. At scale, people pushing their own agenda might come at odds with what the consumers want.

    It obviously sounds like a flawed incentive system, but it begs the question: What else works at such a gigantic scale? Is there any BigTech where Exposure Driven Development isn’t dominating?
