Don't not be evil?

Re: Don't not be evil?

Awesome catch, Quentin. Although I am, of course, posting this comment in an online forum, my own sense of creeping horror at what the Internet has become and is becoming has led to an ever more pervasive disengagement from it in the past few years, and even the past few months. Things like the ruminations in this particular story only underscore my reasons, or at least some of them.

Re: Don't not be evil?

Expecting a corporation not to be evil is like presuming that a sadist won't warm to pain, or that any conscious language-infected thing isn't circumscribed by delusions.

Re: Don't not be evil?

Yes, a large corporation wanting to distance itself from the motto "don't be evil". Anyone surprised by this, raise your hand.

I thought not.
