Google, Apple, Microsoft and the Concept of Evil

Abstract

This chapter gives a brief history of Google, then discusses how successful it is at achieving its motto of ‘Don’t be evil’. It examines the firm’s search engine and advertising model for privacy violations, comparing them with regulatory guidelines. It then moves on to look at apps, to reveal their behaviour towards user information.
