Whatever happened to google's founders, Page and Brin?
Did they make any public comment when google dropped the moniker "Don't be evil"?
Have they spoken publicly in favour or against "surveillance capitalism" or whatever you want to call the business model, as practised by google contemporaneously?
- ocdtrekkie 5y agoLarry Page has been rumored to be chilling on his own personal island at this point like a movie supervillain. Note that while Brin and Page are no longer accountable to anyone and don't speak up because they're "retired", as Google's controlling shareholders, they're still completely in charge of Google.
- wombatmobile 5y agoYeah I'm surprised it's not more of a thing that google search turns up almost nothing about its founders since the company dropped "don't be evil". And since nobody has commented here about what they think of dropping "don't be evil", I'm beginning to wonder if any journalist has ever asked them. And if no journalist has ever asked them that question, I'm wondering what has happened to journalism in the world.
