If you mean Google's motto, its "Don't be evil". Perhaps we are

for Google, doesn't "evil" refer to "those actions or thoughts which
hurt the bottom line"?

Let's get some perspective here. Google as a for-profit corporation,
faces a constant conflict between its professed "do no evil" motto and
its bottom line. All things considered, until now they have actually
done a pretty good job of managing that conflict.



That I agree with. But what makes them evil is the motherfugly UIs that they have popularised via Gmail, Google Reader, etc... ;-)
