This is exactly why I look at companies and corporations with a side-eye of doubt when they claim to have some sort of “do not be evil” motto baked into thier company culture.
It doesn’t matter if a gigantic company has a hundred philanthropy focused CEOs, all ot takes is one greedy or evil one to destroy a company’s dogma
After the investors, managers, and profiteers taste easy money, they will continue to demand to be fed that blood flavored stew.
Once that happens, they either need to be lobotomized or put down for the good of all lest those who are not in the know continue to put money into the frothing imitation it has become.

When I first heard Google’s “don’t be evil”, all I could think is a not-evil person doesn’t need to say this.
Its like normal people, by default, try not to be too evil.
Saying it outright like that makes me side-eye folks who express extreme concepts that way.
Like when clueless people at bars claim that the won’t roofie someone out loud…
I just want to say… "Thank you for doing the bare minimum to be an acceptable person! "
