There's an article going around but it's mostly useless because it's insufficiently naming specific examples.

YouTube = unskipable ads YouTube = ads longer than the content YouTube = ads during pause YouTube = constantly decreasing revenue share with creators despite more ads

I don't think the Getty things is enshitification. It seems more like a regulatory issue

I'm with you on this. If Google didn't change it then they were risking lawsuits. Big difference between milking customers for more with less vs caving to avoid lose.

It's an example of one company coercing another to enshittify for revenue. Getty also gets the blame here.

I'd also agree that it's not unreasonable for Nintendo to shutter the online features of the 3DS and the Wii U. Time marches on.
