Here, I responded to someone suggesting Google's top people were hopefully innocent of this issue. I provided the direct evidence, quoted from the article, that it is not the case.

We can suggest that until a ruling is made, or a settlement agreed, that they may or may not have broken the law. But we can rule out the suggestion of a 'Rogue PM' quite easily. As SDC claiming Larry and Sergey were present, if they weren't, would quite quickly derail their case.
