“Everyone is in favor of free speech… but some people's idea of it is that they are free to say what they like, but if anyone else says anything back, that is an outrage.” ― Winston Churchill
Urban legend has it that Google’s motto is “Do no evil”, or “Don’t be evil”. That’s wrong. In fact, the way it’s stated on their website is: “You can make money without doing evil.”
This is an entirely different concept, and a good thing too, otherwise they’d be open to charges of hypocrisy – having just agreed to co-operate with the Chinese Communists to suppress search results. Their excuse seems to be that “the Chinese were doing it anyway.”
“You can make money without doing evil.” But, apparently you just can’t make quite as much. See also or Evil or not and Google Blogoscoped.
