We're almost at the opposite end of the spectrum since 2005."Don't be evil" <-- Early Google"Do the right thing" <-- Mid 2010"Make them pay for it (via tracking)" <-- Google are here"Money by any means" <-- Oracle, patent trolls, etc.
[–] fuzzfactor 4mo ago ↗ It was pretty worthless for years already compared to when it first became available.It was only better than Mapquest for a few years anyway, I went back to normal a long time ago.

It was only better than Mapquest for a few years anyway, I went back to normal a long time ago.
