Least nefarious ≠ good. Alphabet is still a publicly traded corporation at heart, and they have a legal obligation to their shareholders to turn a profit by any means necessary.
Don’t forget that they got rid of their “Don’t be Evil” motto.
It’s weird that Evil Corporation whose critique is still valid is just not as shitty or simply flies under radar by modern standards. YouTube’s pipeline into conspiracies and demonitization are likely the last I’ve heard of them in negative light, and that’s just a tip of an iceberg. That’s like you can be evil without being cringe.
