The Australian PM is from a marketing background so there’s a fair chance the deal changed so Australian tax payers are now paying Google to pay Murdoch media.

The whole thing is corrupt nonsense.
Morrison has been in Murdochs pocket his entire career.
It's shamless corruption that is damaging Australian Domocracy and our reputation.

Was your comment tongue-in-cheek?
Because it seemed pretty obvious to me, but you are getting heavily downvoted, and I am usually the one who is very oblivious to sarcasm/tongue-in-cheek in writing. Which makes me doubt my assumption about your comment.
Just wanted to make sure I understood the comment correctly.

If you're referring to Google's old motto "Don't be evil", then FYI that got dropped years ago: https://gizmodo.com/google-removes-nearly-all-mentions-of-do...

Do you have a source for this claim or is this just speculation?
