Google Tells Senators That Censored Search Engine Could Provide “Broad Benefits”

Is it just me, or is Google's CEO's behavior and take on things over the last year or so turning out pretty negative for the company? Maybe time to find a replacement?

"Be Evil. But try and hide it."

Yes, they would say that, they stand to profit from it.

Broad benefits ... to shareholders

I find that it's ok for censoring to happen since the impact would be that the search engine exists. It's a long term plan I assume and since it's a private company it will do whatever it wants to make money regardless of local policy.

What about Google censoring so called alt-right videos, closing the accounts of vloggers, restricting ad revenue, and suppressing other politically charged content because it doesn't sit well with their company political views, or that of some their employees, eg cancelling the domain name sevice of the Daily Stormer?

It seems that so described liberals are happy with Google censorship if it is in line with their views, but are not if it is in alignment with the Chinese states policies.

To those Google staff members who object to Google's reentering of China's search engine market, charity begins at home.

“Broad Benefits”, but for whom?
