Can't read the article because of the paywall, but if they're literally using, "Do the Right Thing", that's super super ironic. It's been a while since I've seen it, but if I recall correctly; a major premise of the movie was that characters did not know what the Right Thing was, or whether they were Doing It.

- Raphmedia 11y agoCorrect me if I'm wrong, but wasn't "Don't be evil" the same? Not official, but respected?
- Mz 11y agoSorry, "Doesn't include that phrase" refers to "Don't be evil", not "Do the right thing." I think you are misinterpreting the quote out of context. Edit: Fuller quote: Google’s code of conduct, of course, is best-known for its first line, which was also included in Google’s 2004 filing for its initial public offering: “Don’t be evil.” Alphabet’s code doesn’t include that phrase. Instead, it says employees of Alphabet and its subsidiaries “should do the right thing – follow the law, act honorably, and treat each other with respect.”
