They’re… yes. Yes, that’s exactly what they have done and continue to do. Are you familiar with it?

That phrase is Google's mission statement.
I thought their mission statement was "Don't be evil", until they shortened it for practicality to just "Be evil". It's certainly how they've been behaving in recent years.
It's now "Don't be evil*"
* Subject to terms and conditions, lack of evil not be available in all regions.
That wasn't ever a mission statement, and fwiw it was in the employee handbook still in 2023 when I got laid off.
They changed it more than ten years ago into "Do the right thing".

Motto, not mission statement.
I think the comment is saying Google was also doing that.
Anna's archive doesn't engage in privacy-eroding antitrust/monopolistic activities (yet), so there's that I suppose...
They're doing one site less now
