Google: Don’t look like you’re doing evil
It would appear that Google’s corporate philosophy is being bent, twisted and re-interpreted by their desire to expand their product portfolio and their new need to satisfy shareholders now that they are public.
I’m not sure I like this one bit, especially this AutoLink ‘feature’ - anything that can obscure copyrighted content for (possibly conflicting) commercial reasons shouldn’t be encouraged or even legal. I certainly don’t want to have to opt out - how about Google asking or paying me to opt-in?
“You can make money without doing evil”? Yeah, but not much when everyone else is evil. Google grows up…
