> it very much sounds you're making claims about them as people.
That's not an unreasonable interpretation, but it isn't what I intended. Their personal PR about how they run the company matters because these are unusually founder-driven companies, and even more so in terms of perception. Just as most people think of the President as more of a king, most have an image of Facebook as Mark Zuckerberg's personal playground.
> it's evident you personally see Google's founders as better people ethically, and Zuck as lacking principles
You have me wrong here. As I said, I was speaking about perceptions of them. As I said tho, that's not unreasonable, since in the name of succinctness, I presented the view and only afterwards indicated that I was focusing on perception.
