when I worked at google "don't be evil" was not anywhere in the new employee stuff, or anywhere else I saw after.
That said I agree entirely: what one person says is good and evil is depressingly variable (to use the internet extreme: to a nazi capturing jews is good, because jews are evil - which to you and I is [presumably] clearly insane)

They (at least the higher ups) believed it was for the greater good, but the rest of the world (and history) has disagreed with them. So much so, we executed the higher ups during the trials afterwards.
