Google is evil. Why people say that?

   Amit Singhal, a Google fellow, took to Google's official blog to address concerns about a New York Times weekend story, "A Bully Finds a Pulpit on the Web." The story followed an online company that uses negative customer responses to score higher Google ranks and a woman, Clarabelle Rodriguez, who was fighting back against the company. "We were horrified to read about Ms. Rodriguez's dreadful experience, the blog read, before launching into an explanation about how Google had convened a team to look into the problem immediately. "We can say with reasonable confidence that being bad to customers is bad for business on Google." Although the move falls in line with Google's philosophy to do good, Mozilla Firefox's director of community development took to his blog to allege that Google is involved in some very not-good action. "Sneaking software onto my system that I didn't ask for is evil," Asa Dotzler writes. When certain programs are installed on a person's computer, Microsoft, Google, and Apple add plug-ins to the Firefox Web browser without alerting the user. Dotzler calls the practice a Trojan horse. "Microsoft, stop being evil. Apple, stop being evil. Google, stop being evil."
