Basically why Larry Page and Sergey Brin had Eric Schmidt become their CEO. He could do all the business stuff while they focused on doing whatever moonshots they wanted

    Erin Schmidt is the one who turned Google into the shitty company that had to remove their “Don’t be evil” policy.

    I remember when this scandal came out: https://www.wired.com/2012/05/google-wifi-fcc-investigation/

    I watched the press event when Larry Page (obviously not knowing what was going on) promised that they will immediately delete all the sniffed data, then Eric came, took the mic and corrected: “We will delete the data once we receive the court order that forces us to do”.
