After having read a bit about Google, it appears that Google, as a company, does not have much integrity. They are a very large company that seems concerned about their employees' creativity, but there are many controversies about their business practices concerning discrimination over age and sex in hiring, as well as user privacy with cookies, length of time user information is kept, use of satellites, copyright, censorship, and many other questionable practices.
On the other hand, I don't think its evil using Google. As a matter of fact I think it's a great research tool, because it gives you a variety of information that could be useful. I believe it's up to the student to use it wisely and responsibly. Google is just a tool; however it's up to the researcher to choose information that it's legit.
