Google have done very few things that could be called "evil".

The "no aliases on G+" being the biggest one I can think of, or
possibly something to do with Google Maps/Earth and privacy/DoD information
kickbacks (could be either way, pulling info from GMaps, or faking info on
GMaps).

I've far more worried about what they'll do when the leadership changes. Google
have massive *potential* for evil, which so far they haven't used. Seriously,
they've hardly touched what they could do if they felt like it.

All in all, I put them in the pro coloumn for now, but with a note saying to
keep an eye on them. Which is the best any organisation has, including folks
like the FSF and RedHat.
