So what they are saying is because we as individuals are too cheep to give to charity they are giving in our stead to shame us. Yup, that is evil.
I know it's off-topic, but I'm impressed with the idea that a public corporation can spend 8 figures on something that has essentially $0 ROI and multiple people here can find bad things about it. I'm shocked someone didn't say "but that's only 0.0000$WHATEVER percent of their profit!". Google does many things which can be argued as evil, or not, but I would say this is very much not one of them. -- TTFN, patrick
