    Their old principle was ‘don’t be evil’. The fact they no longer say that tells you everything

      Somewhere, sometime, there was a meeting at Google where they decided that value would be dropped.

      Google sucks for sure, but I keep seeing this claim that they’ve removed “don’t be evil” from their code of conduct.

      It’s still there, it’s just no longer the main motto and has been moved from the preface to the conclusion.

      You can read it yourself; “don’t be evil” is literally in the last sentence verbatim, lol: https://abc.xyz/investor/google-code-of-conduct/
