As always, Google did an excellent job making money left and right. You gotta give them credit for that.

On the other hand, they are a bit "disingenuous" (Jobs' favorite word to describe Google) about their mantra, as ultimately this profit is made at the expense of American citizens (lower tax revenue). Why does it matter? Well it matters because they (tangibly and intangibly) benefited greatly then and now from the "Do No Evil" mantra, and they should accept that it comes at the price of people holding them to a higher standard. It is "Do No Evil", not "Do Less Evil" or "Do No Evil When Convenient".
