Oh yeah, that I agree with.
"Don't be evil," was always a gimmick, IMO.
Not sure there's any real solution, though. As long as there's a government, there's going to be somebody who thinks it's evil.

- jlarocco 6y agoYes, always. No company is explicitly, purposefully doing evil. Also, "evil" is such a subjective word that it's almost meaningless with no context.
