Don't be Google
Google gives life to the Eric Hoffer observation, "People who bite the hand that feeds them usually lick the boot that kicks them."
Google painted itself as heroic in refusing to help the U.S. Department of Justice's efforts to reinstate a 1998 federal Child Online Protection Act, then revealed that it was going to help the Chinese government suppress free speech. That sort of goes against the company's informal corporate motto, "Don't be evil."

"Some Google is better than no Google" is the official corporate line out of Google World Headquarters. An awful lot of people aren't buying it. There is a difference between being a functioning capitalist concern and simply being a whore. Apparently Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft are unaware of the difference.
