I do not care for some of Google's business practices.

[McDave]

I would not say neither evil. But I trust Microsoft more since not everything they offer is free.

[The Rev]

Google. is way more evil. :p

Google will eat your children.

Well, Microsoft's evilness will have some fatal BSOD-flaw, but Google's evilness will stay in Beta for years. Overall, Google.

I don't think you understand the definition of evil, old chap! Though I voted for Google...

[C_Guy]

It's ironic that Google's motto is "Do no evil" when that seems to be what they excel at.

"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."

That's why I wouldn't call Microsoft evil any more (Bill Gates knew how to be evil, Steve Ballmer knows how to act like a monkey), I don't think they're competent enough any more to pull off evil.

I wouldn't call Google evil because they haven't done anything I would call evil.

Google has great products. Mostly free too. Google has my vote for not being the evil one.

[b0m8er]

Google is! He who controls most of our serch queries, our mail, pictures, calendars gotta be evil! :devil:

with all of the law suits against MS they are on to big of a leash to be evil any more, that and bill is now off try to scare people with mosquitoes and malaria. My vote is for google.

[Mathachew Veteran]

Needs a neither option because that's what I'd pick.

[Reacon]

Bwahahahhaha Google is currently winning by a landslide in this poll...why am I not surprised. They're starting to become egotistical b*stards for being so successful. Time to move on to Yahoo...

[Zickar]

I love Google, Sure it has a lot of information about me but so far it never used that outside of the context it says it uses it for : ADVERTISING .... I think the fact that its software and services are open source and free is what makes me dispatch the idea of evilness of Google

MS, Google and others are trying to use the NET for everything. The Next Office release is to be Net related. Sorry but there are some documents and data that I would not want on the Net.

[Guest GraphiteCube]

Google just try to track down EVERYTHING in your WHOLE LIFE and monopolize your WHOLE LIFE.

Microsoft isn't very good, but they still let you choose.

Google without a doubt. Any company that collects that much personal information about you (search, mail, surfing, etc) but promises not to ever use it for evil is obviously evil. Why else would you collect and keep that volume of data?

[MrChainsaw]

Ms is evil, i mean who doesn't have a pc that doesn't spy on you now?

[HawkMan]

double negative ruins your comment.

In 2002 I said Google would one day be hated like Microsoft!

And I think names are supposed to begin with capital letters.

"null" vote for me. Neither are "evil"

If running a business to be the "best" and be sucessful is evil, than you can apply that to all corporations. But I don't see any problem with them.

If you want evil, look at all the banks/corps that are getting bailouts and asking for more. Pretty sure Bill wouldn't have asked for a bailout to take himself on vacation...
