For some reason this doesn't surprise me. After their agreement to help the Chinese government censor their search results, their "don't be evil" motto rang hollow. I still use Google, but I no longer expect them to be some saintly corporate citizen.
Yeah, using "don't be evil" as a corporate motto is practically a contradiction in terms.
In the comments there's a claim that all the ad stuff was written by contractors who got nothing in terms of stock and weren't even there more than about six months. I absolutely believe it's possible. That's why I don't live in Silicon Valley or San Francisco any more.
