Google's behavior has been pretty consistent over the years. They may not live up to "don't be evil" but they've stuck to "be less evil" pretty well. What's interesting about the Verizon story is all this reporting that they're about to take a sharp turn in an evil direction, contradicting what they've claimed to stand for for a long time. I bet this turns out not to be the case, if not because of virtue, then homeostasis. Edit: of course that raises the question of where this wave of false stories (if that's what they are) is coming from.
