Eh, I dunno if a witch hunt is needed. They fixed it pretty quickly and admitted their mistake. Any other repercussions I'm sure would be dealt with internally. No need to scar someone's record by holding their feet to the fire over an April Fool's joke. It wasn't particularly sneaky or corrupt. We hold Google to such a high standard. We should let them recover when they admit their mistakes.
- bambax 11y agoI'm absolutely, totally not calling for a witch hunt against Google; as the parent said, they made a mistake, they corrected it, we can move on. BUT I strongly disagree with the post that seems to argue (without saying it plainly) that the prank was indeed funny and it's the fault of "the Internet" if it didn't work, because, it seems, masses can't take a joke.
- studentrob 11y agoOhhh yeah I agree. Not sure who wrote that but it seems like it isn't official Google speak. As for anyone else, well, individuals say dumb things sometimes. We just hope a collective group doesn't act like a bunch of thoughtless clowns =)
