- adventured 13y agoNot true. He was a distant mentor, not a close mentor. He did the same for Zuckerberg.

- wavefunction 13y agouh... and how's that working out. Come on, "Don't be evil" is just clever marketing that a lot of people fell for at first, and some still do.
- ak39 13y agoAbsolutely! This sort of jingoism at corporate level, the sort of moral imperative front-facing cleverly marketed idealism is the new religion, I swear. I can understand when a company puts itself "out there" with "Being the best" or "Customer first" or some bullshit like that. But when the rhetoric enters the realm of good ol' fashioned morality and talks about Good and Evil .. yoh! ... Our bs sensors should now be howling, thanks to companies like Google.
