people, Google is not to blame for this annoying change, it happens to be Safari (apple). Google chrome has a browser app that allows you to view the fullsize image very easily by clicking and holding the image. I can't think of a logical explanation for Safari making this change, but I can guess it has something to do with them making more money somehow. Either they get paid by sites when you are forced to visit the site hosting the picture. There are tons of features Apple could have that would improve functionality on the iPhone, but they don't, for reasons related to money I'm assuming. Possibly planned obsoletion, so that they can continue to "improve", or add "new" features to their phone to keep consumers buying, when in reality they aren't new features. Greedy pricks.
