> Makes sense why they had to get rid of the "don't be evil" motto.
I hate how this always gets brought up because:
1. Evil has no definition, so it means nothing. They get to define what evil is for themselves. They stated their reasons they think this change is good. You can't prove it breaks their code of conduct.
2. It's straight up false, it's still in their code of conduct:
> And remember... don’t be evil, and if you see something that you think isn’t right – speak up!
> They stated their reasons they think this change is good.
Right, because someone doing something evil would say outright what they're doing is evil.
> It's straight up false, it's still in their code of conduct
This is news to me. I think it's interesting that they removed it from the opening and put it at the end though.
> Right, because someone doing something evil would say outright what they're doing is evil.
That's my point. It means nothing, so who cares if it's in the code of conduct?
