Google’s ‘Don’t Be Evil’ Becomes Alphabet’s ‘Do the Right Thing’

&quot;Do the right thing&quot; defined as “– follow the law, act honorably, and treat each other with respect,” just doesn&#x27;t feel the same.<p>&quot;Don&#x27;t Be Evil&quot; appeals to a force above the law, sometimes the law is evil (Nazi Germany).<p>&quot;Do the right thing,&quot; implies there is a single right thing which is woefully out of touch with the vast array of choices we have each day that fall all along the moral spectrum. It&#x27;s cliche; I have trouble not immediately writing it off.

You guys are forgetting that &quot;Don&#x27;t be evil&quot; is interpreted by a part of the brain as &quot;Be Evil.&quot; That was a terrible slogan. &quot;Do the right thing&quot; is much better.<p>When we hear &quot;Don&#x27;t Be Evil&quot; there is a part of our brains that interprets the part about being evil, the concept of what evil is, and then the logic brain has to jump in and say, &quot;Now don&#x27;t you do that.&quot; It&#x27;s well known that telling people to &quot;Not smoke&quot; again and again will give them the urge to smoke. And telling your child to not do something will make them want to do it. Why? We believe it&#x27;s because on an MRI scan most of the brain will light up when interpreting the &quot;Smoke&quot; part (because the brain is conceptualizing what smoking is), whereas only a small part of the brain will light up when trying to apply the negation &quot;Don&#x27;t&quot; to that concept. If I told you to not picture a white bear....aha, you pictured a white bear!<p>If you want someone to do something, simply keep telling them not to do it.

I liked &#x27;Don&#x27;t Be Evil&#x27;. It felt like it was a constant reminder to fight becoming a cliche evil corporation. &#x27;Do the right thing&#x27; adds little to no value in terms of being a moral compass to use when expanding the company.

Philosophically, I like the focus on &#x27;doing,&#x27; purposefully doing things because they are &#x27;right,&#x27; rather than not doing things because they are &#x27;evil.&#x27; Spinoza, Deleuze, and a few others are pretty good on this.<p>Action will always prevail.

There are many non-paywalled articles we could use in the link. For example,<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cnet.com&#x2F;au&#x2F;news&#x2F;googles-new-holding-company-drops-dont-be-evil&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cnet.com&#x2F;au&#x2F;news&#x2F;googles-new-holding-company-drop...</a>

Google&#x27;s motto is still &quot;Don&#x27;t be evil&quot;

&gt; <i>follow the law</i><p>It&#x27;s kind of depressing that companies feel they need to put this in their code of conduct.

Watered down slogan to go with their watered down attitude towards users&#x2F;&quot;the product&quot;.

Can&#x27;t read the article because of the paywall, but if they&#x27;re literally using, &quot;Do the Right Thing&quot;, that&#x27;s super super ironic. It&#x27;s been a while since I&#x27;ve seen it, but if I recall correctly; a major premise of the movie was that characters did not know what the Right Thing was, or whether they were Doing It.
