      The phrase was weird to start with. It’s like wearing a shirt that says “don’t be a pedophile”. It’s saying more than the words themselves.

    The personal experience my family has with Google and their data center development, from behind the curtain.

    Google doesn’t give a fuck. Some of the people outside of their executive offices do, but not Google leadership. They have no conscious, no morality, no sense of duty or patronage.

    They will not hesitate to lie, break promises, or hide the full truth.

    They exist only to capture more wealth in any way that they can.

    Imagine if we treated gross incompetence as malice.

    Like, “hey Ford, prove your engineers thought putting the gas tank in a crumple zone was a good idea.”

    Imagine if we had a corporate death penalty, where a company who violated the law persistently was dissolved and its assets taken over by the government before being sold off to competitors.
