If someone finds something in there that seems evil, I'd like to hear about it, and I could relay such a finding to where people who matter would read it. When you're thinking about Google, it's helpful to bear in mind that G is really driven by two business motivations: - Make your experience at G satisfactory so you'll come back again - Increase the probability that you'll care about the ads you get shown. It's not obvious to me that being evil would actually help achieve either of those things, and there's not much else that G really cares about. -T On Wed, Jan 25, 2012 at 7:42 AM, P. J.
