Is anyone surprised that Schmidt wanted to stay after making that privacy statement blunder?


Schmidt has his career on the line; tasked with growing the fastest growing company in history, the man has bigger problems than you and I can conceive.


And he's doing an amazing job, from what I can see. I can't imagine the pressure he'd be facing.


So just because he has a big job means that he can be immoral about it?


I thought your point was valid and on-topic. The statement "If You Have Something You Don't Want Anyone To Know, Maybe You Shouldn't Be Doing It" ( http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/12/07/google-ceo-on-priva... ) was fairly extreme.
