I very much read the article, I just disagree with it. To clarify again, I was never a paid worker at Google. I was asked to volunteer as a guest lecturer and received nothing for my time other than the satisfaction of teaching basic skills to a room full of up and coming Android developers.

I defended Google based on merit, not company bias because they paid my bills. They didn't even pay for my hotel or travel time. As I clearly stated I was strictly an "unpaid volunteer" who lectured to a bunch of undergraduate students because everyone deserves free education. There was not a single ulterior motive for my appearance and my agreement to speak at the conference.
