<i>In public comments, Mr. Page goes out of his way to say the opposite, describing Google more in terms of a nonprofit than a gigantic corporation. During a 2014 interview with Charlie Rose, he said he wished there were a vehicle for people to donate money to their company so that it could be used for projects that had some kind of social purpose.</i><p>There is such a &quot;vehicle&quot;, google something and click on an ad.<p>Seriously, why would anyone want to donate to Google so that they can do projects with &quot;some kind of social purpose&quot;? Is Google an expert at &quot;some kind of social purpose&quot;-projects? Can Google (or the founders) not afford such projects without normal people explicitly donating? Just the thought of donating to Google is offensive and I find the article author&#x27;s seemingly awe at Mr Page&#x27;s idea of such a thing repulsive.
