      How is this evil? Google is selling off a portion of their business that is probably not profitable for them. Evil would be ruining the service for the sake of profits. Would shutting it down be less evil?

      If you don’t like Squarespace, then aren’t they the evil ones in this scenario?

        Maybe you misread. aeternum gave two reasons for not “using Google”: (1) they often shut down services—his/her original reason—and (2) being “evil”, an additional reason and possibly a reference to Google’s “Don’t be evil” motto which is now used only in a very weak context at the end of their Code of Conduct.
