While I trust you-the-private-person, I am wary of trusting you in the capacity of a google employee. And how could I trust that you and other thousands of google employees, when told to do something that is a little bit not in the interest of users, will disobey and risk ostracism and ruining of career prospects. The incentives are just not aligned that way, and google has lately shown how swiftly and brutally it deals with dissent.
Companies indeed aren't people, they are, as poetically put by Charlie Stross, invaders from Mars (http://www.antipope.org/charlie/blog-static/2010/12/invaders-from-mars http://www.antipope.org/charlie/blog-static/2010/12/invaders...). Damore has said in one of his interviews that he loves google. I think it is a big mistake - loving someone (or something) who can't love you back.
