I wouldn't be so quick at judging the Google guys. From their blog:
"We'll follow through on the other commitment - one percent of profit - by taking one percent of each year's profits and donating and investing that too. Our first step in meeting these commitments includes a $90 million cash donation to the Google Foundation and a commitment of up to $175 million over three years across our other Google.org efforts."
