When I worked at Google, as an engineer on Google News, I was asked to write code to censor news articles in China (circa 2006). I refused and they took me off the project and put someone else on it. Doesn't surprise me Google is back at it. "Don't be Evil" is a Google myth.https://twitter.com/PoliticalShort/status/1040804462523236352 …

Yeah it was definitely more of a core belief when I first joined in 2002

Vijay, do you think it's a problem with Google specifically, or a common problem with large, public corporations whose singular focus is the bottom line?
Maybe at one point when Google was much smaller they did earnestly believe in “Don’t be evil”?
