In 2015, when Google was reorganized under Alphabet in a corporate
restructure, the motto was quietly changed to ‘do the right thing’.

Quotes:

Is Google evil?
Evil is a strong word and the simple fact that they removed this
phrase from their code of conduct and other communications does not
mean that they did so because they now want to be evil.

However, it is clear that Google has struggled to stay true to its
original motivations, with numerous scandals over the years suggesting
that they prioritise profits over doing good.
