This week's article on Google's evil tendencies was interesting to read. I had no idea that every search on any of their services are kept -- including email. Although I can see this information being used for negative uses, I also think back and realize it hasn't been yet. Yet being the opporative word. I would like to think they wouldn't/couldn't use my information for "evil," but I must also realize it is completely possible. I guess there are benefits to being 'computer illiterate' and not using google too much. It does look as though google will need to start watching what information is posted or accessed through its website since there seem to be multiple copyright issues.
If for no other reason than my personal information being used against me, I will be watching my searches on google now -- not that I ever searched for anything that would come back to be used against me or anything. *SMILES*
But, in answer to the posed question, I don't believe google is evil.
