Was this really just last month? I feel like I participated in outrage over the removal of "don't be evil" last year or the year before.
And it's not like it ever meant anything. I agree terrible companies are terrible... but there hasn't been a turning point recently or ever.
- randomdata 8y agoThere are articles on the internet going back many years claiming that they've quietly removed it. Perhaps they remove it occasionally to generate buzz or as part of some kind of A/B testing? As I write this, it is currently included: https://abc.xyz/investor/other/google-code-of-conduct.html https://abc.xyz/investor/other/google-code-of-conduct.html
- HillaryBriss 8y agoi like the idea of A/B testing that particular statement i mean, what were the alternatives? did they test against "Be evil" or "Don't be good?" or "Remove the headphone jack" or something?
