To the first: No, of course not. But it does imply that they are (surprise) more focused on the bottom line and willing to adjust moral values for an extended time.
To the second: Its not that more data=evil, it's that 'evil' has broader access to you, your habits and potentially your kids and their habits, etc. I do not trust google all that much (I say this with a gmail account I use for work). It's not that I don't trust them, its that the data is powerful and can easily be used for unsavory activities. Also, practically impossible was an iPhone in 2003, but a mere 4 years later there it was. That Moore's law is really something.
