My point is that Google, of all companies, should be grown-up-enough to be able to resist the temptation to feed its users PR non-answers. Google's supposed to be bucking trends, "Do[ing] No Evil(TM)", etc.; they've set a higher standard and they're not meeting it.

C'mon, "Do[ing] No Evil(TM)" is itself a PR non-answer to explain why we shouldn't be worried about their dangerous centralization of data and infrastructure.
At Microsoft (and I'm sure at Google), there was an internal "rude FAQ" that was full of these answers. I felt it a shame we couldn't just publish that, instead.
