It's a motto meant as internal guidance, as befits something a code of conduct. Not something meant for marketing purposes.
And yes, I'd like a restaurant to encourage its workers to take steps to ensure the food is safe.
- amelius 8y ago> And yes, I'd like a restaurant to encourage its workers to take steps to ensure the food is safe. By telling them to not poison the guests? Do I really have to explain what's wrong here?
- jkaplowitz 8y ago"Don't poison the guests" would be analogous to "don't do [a specific evil thing]." "Don't be evil" is more analogus to "don't get sloppy with hygiene." The second message is a good one for a restaurant to give its workers.
- amelius 8y agoThe problem with Google's motto is that it's about intentional harm, whereas your example (being sloppy) is about unintentional harm.
