OpenStreetMap Reports Data Vandalism From Google-Owned IPs

An anonymous reader writes "Following reports of misconduct by Google employees in Kenya and India, It has been found that Google IP addresses have been responsible for deliberate vandalism of OpenStreetMap data.

Google's motto isn't "Do no evil", it's "Don't be evil". You can do as much evil actions as you want as long as you're doing them for a good cause (Google's success), then you aren't being evil.
