Why did Google decide to "be evil?" [View All]

[SquireJons]

Forget the motto "don't be evil", it's so yesterday. They're evil as sin now. I'm not really sure when it happened, but probably around the time of the IPO, so my guess is that the "why" is unimaginable wealth. But for a company that set itself up as the anti corporate corporation, they sure have gone right wing in a hurry. Everyone knows about how they're working with Chinese authorities to censure and prosecute dissenters, but what about the crap they feed Americans? I notice a while ago that their "news" kinda makes faux news look reliable. Here's a taste of the kind of stuff they post all the time:

'America's mayor' praises Bush in state GOP speech'

This is an insufferable article about Giuliani that bears no resemblance to reality, but I'm sure millions of Americans read it none the less. Calling him 'America's Mayor' is Worse than calling the Dallas Cowpokes 'America's Team.' Empty marketing, but it sure is insulting to everybody else. Of course, that's Rudy's style.
