We need a term for it - the fear of adopting something because it might be cancelled based on past history leading to the cancellation further confirming that these companies would cancel new products.
The word Google has already been used as a noun, so we could slightly repurpose it and use it again.
E.g. “That Netflix show is fantastic but I wouldn’t bother starting it as it got Googled at the end of the first season.”
Or:
“Google’s new messaging service looks cool but I’m not going to get everyone to use it as I bet they’ll only go and Google it in about 18 months.”
