The socially accepted responsibilities of companies are changing. The more Google goes down this road, the more they transition from being liked to being disliked but having power not to care. Eventually people will remove that power from them by abandoning their services, even if it takes a while.
Companies are groups of people. Those people should be asking what they care about in the world, not what makes the most money that will then be spread to shareholders.

This is a bold claim regardless of ethics and seems to be quite prestige blinded.
