Can’t fool me, they gave it away when they removed “Don’t be evil” from their motto back in 2015.
No they didn't. Please stop spreading this false rumour.

That's not their motto
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_be_evil was specifically removed from their motto in 2015
"Stop spreading this false rumor" and then gets proven wrong by a simple link to Wikipedia found in 5 seconds on google. I'm curious if they own stock in Alphabet, as I wouldn't give a shit about their internal code of ethics when they don't seemingly obey them.
Also "false rumor" is kind of a needless statement. A rumor is false until proven true. Like an "unsolved mystery" is always unsolved, if it was solved, it would not be a mystery.
That's not their code of conduct, they are telling YOU not to be evil.
