In public comments, Mr. Page goes out of his way to say the opposite, describing Google more in terms of a nonprofit than a gigantic corporation. During a 2014 interview with Charlie Rose, he said he wished there were a vehicle for people to donate money to their company so that it could be used for projects that had some kind of social purpose. There is such a "vehicle", google something and click on an ad. Seriously, why would anyone want to donate to Google so that they can do projects with "some kind of social purpose"? Is Google an expert at "some kind of social purpose"-projects? Can Google (or the founders) not afford such projects without normal people explicitly donating? Just the thought of donating to Google is offensive and I find the article author's seemingly awe at Mr Page's idea of such a thing repulsive.
