    So not giving away 15GB of free storage is evil? How does that even work…?

    I thought being evil was about doing, like, evil things?

      It’s not about the 15 GB but there was a time where Gmail was new and fancy - and Google’s slogan “Don’t be evil” as a young and uprising company. As the market got saturated, the business model (or the direction) changed and it’s not only Google, M$ also did reduce free space in OneDrive after many years some time ago.

      “Don’t be evil” was just the referral to this slogan and I don’t care if it’s 15 GB or 30 GB today as I choose to pay for the services these days instead of just relying on any free(mium) model.

        I agree that Google removing “don’t be evil” is bad. But mentioning that change in this context is a non sequitur.
