Did you even read the explanation part of the article???

In all seriousness, fuck Google. These pieces of garbage have completely abandoned their Don’t be Evil motto and have become full-fledged supervillains.

Were you around in 1989 when Exxon basically destroyed Prince William Sound with an iceberged oil tanker through a comically evil set of circumstances including a possibly drunken captain, faulty equipment which languished for months, promised equipment that was never installed, and a total lack of planning for contingency? They dumped like 11 million gallons of oil and were assigned massive punitive damages of 5 billion bucks?

…and then it got appealed all the way to the supreme court, where it got busted down to 500 million spread over a time which actually allowed them to see profitability for causing one of the largest ecological disasters in history.

I don’t mean to sound jaded, and I truly appreciate your optimism. But the deck is no less stacked thirty years later and our political system is still bought and paid for. Let’s roll the dice and hope you come out on top of this one, friend. I’ll cheer alongside you.

Thanks. I appreciate that.

…can we just skip to the part where Amazon pays less than a fractional percent of their profit in fines and then proceeds with business as usual? I just feel like the charade has grown tiresome at this point.

Holy crap. He seriously has the most punchable looking face I’ve seen in months.

I am just so damn sick of every CEO.
