Of course they don't want what is best for us. They are an incorporated enterprise. Sergey and Larry may sometimes want to do things that make the world a better place, but at the end of the day, Google will do whatever is best for them, their founders, and their shareholders.
This concept that companies should be expected to act in the best interest of their users/consumers/employees is why some people have the misconception that all regulation is bad, and leaders are applauded for blindly repealing them.
Personally, I don't expect anything more of a corporate enterprise than that of which they are legally obliged.
- dvfjsdhgfv 9y agoWell, this concept dates from the nineties. Google, as opposed to AltaVista, Yahoo and others, was just a neat, minimalist search engine with excellent results - and they remained in this way for a few years. In the minds of the users it was a company offering a great service while not asking for anything in exchange - and the "Do no evil" mantra seemed plausible back then.
