@stux And it was a lie right from the start.

They just kept making it bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger.

@stux very clear evidence to be very wary of their Newspeak & Doublethink Dept, no I didn't mean their marketing team, that's just what they call it publically these days.

@stux oh Stux you are so right it feels like several lifetimes ago 🙀😿

@stux Now they are clear cutting forests and forcing students to use AI, among other things.

@stux That slogan has to be reinstalled as part of the OS of management, if the company's to become fit to survive again. Soon.

@stux

You can blame the Finance function for that. They always lobby for short term thinking to goose revenue and get their bonus.

As one of my managers said, "They count the beans. They don't make the beans."

@stux Now, that's the pick-up line. Wait: did anybody really believe it was serious? Really?

@stux

And now their "Evil" has manifested itself into destroying natural habitats for wildlife, and leaving the land scarred for life, to build fucking data centers.

#FuckGoogle #FuckAI #DestroyDataCenters

@stux some people believe so strongly in their god, that they can morally justify everything they do, because it is the will of the Lord.

So, Google isnt evil, they just dont call it that.

@stux it was a LIE

@stux de-googling (other than still using Android) was probably the best thing I've done for my privacy in years. I feel so much digitally cleaner.

This was my journey of leaving the main Google services I was using day to day, and what I'm using now. Shame about the recent Proton fiasco, but I'm not sure I'm quite ready to migrate all of that stuff yet. Luckily I put in the effort of using my own domain this time around so moving elsewhere won't be anywhere near as painful!

@stux An ex of mine actually believed this slogan. Gezus!

@stux @bieberium It was bullshit then too.

@stux Evilness can be subjective.
