It’s pretty much the way of the world: beyond the basic enshittification story that has been so well told over the past year or so about how companies get worse and worse as they get more and more …

    Honestly, this is about what I expect from Google nowadays. It’s surprising when they manage to live up to the “Don’t be Evil” motto they used to have.

      There’s a reason they got rid of that motto.

        They never got rid of it though. I don’t understand why people keep repeating this. See the final paragraph here: https://abc.xyz/investor/google-code-of-conduct/

            don’t be evil and if you see something, speak up

            Oh really Google?

              It’s double speak. The translation is “We are evil and if you say something about what you see, we will silence you.”.

                Wait, that’s the government’s stance also.

              Depends on your definition of “evil”, I guess.

                Lol, right? Bit of a slippery slope over at the ol search and advertising factory.

          They removed it from the main body as like, an organizing principle. and left it in only one sentence at the end. https://gizmodo.com/google-removes-nearly-all-mentions-of-dont-be-evil-from-1826153393

            Sure, that’s different to totally removing it though.

          I heard several news stories stating that they had, but I guess that’s my fault for believing the news. I just assumed they would get something right eventually.
