Google removing the "do no evil" from their ethos was a very clear indication of the direction they were heading.

"Don't be evil" is still in Google's Code of Conduct, it's just been at the end of the document rather than the start since 2018.

Google did evil shit before and after the change, it's not quite the big deal that some people make it out to be!

Hm. Still, that's about the time that a trend in the company shifted.

I used to think that Google seemed to be trying to be decent in various ways. It's quite a challenge for a large, for-profit. The attempts showed.

I don't see that anymore.
