EU already passed their Right to Be Forgotten, I’m sure they’ll figure out another way to piss off Google.

poty posted:google cars are ogling women fishing for revealing pics to post on google maps google should just default to handling these cases as "you know what, you're right and we're sorry, we have blurred the image at your request and here is a $10 gift card to the google play store" or some poo poo. i don't think there is a legit "information wants to be free" case to be made for when someone who was photographed at their home wants the photo removed/obscured, for any reason, be it visible cleavage or just walking in a suit from your car to your front door.

keep expectations low by keeping all products in a "new" or beta state, even when you've had products in that category for years.

http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/nov/03/larry-page-google-dont-be-evil-sergey-brinquote:Questioned as to whether Google needs to alter its mission statement, which was twinned with the company mantra “don’t be evil, for the next stage of company growth in an interview with the Financial Times, Page responded: “We’re in a bit of uncharted territory. We’re trying to figure it out. How do we use all these resources … and have a much more positive impact on the world?”

when google ipo'd and suddenly had this repulsive idea of "shareholder value" to uphold, they clarified their don't be evil policy as (paraphrased) "we think that being evil to people makes them dislike the company and stop using our products, reducing our cash flow, so it is our feeling that we shouldn't be evil to people in the short term because it leads to more profit in the long term." forget where to find it now but it's spelled out in very similar language to that on their website somewhere. the implication of course, is that if they could find a way to make more money being evil, well

also note that their ipo was in two thousand and loving four, so they've been running with that for a tech-world eternity now. it shouldn't be the least bit surprising when they do something that is, in fact, evil

"don't be evil" is a marketing line crafted to make slashdot nerds cheer for an advertising company. coincidentally google's employees are also slashdot nerds.
