Now I understand the predicament in which Google finds itself. It mostly boils down to a simple rule: Don’t be evil, and what to do when confronted with evil.
What if you are confronted with forces of darkness that are more evil than you, and to wage war against those forces of darkness, you have to commit acts which you’d normally consider “evil” under normal circumstances. Perhaps this falls under the “Just War Theory” used in philosophical circles to justify human acts that would normally never be tolerated in “civilized” society.
Alas… I’m just posting this here to reinforce my resolve to “not be evil,” like Google, yet still engage in a Just War fight, when the forces that oppose me are pure, utter, Third Reich fucking evil.
As you could have probably guessed, this involves a relationship, and not anything related to work, family, etc. Peace out.
