Do you know what puzzles me most? How can software engineers work on something like this? Don't those paid engineers or involved ones have the balls or dignity to walk away? I'm just wondering how they would feel about this (if they feel anything at all). I mean, if I'd be in such a position and asked to push something like this I'd have walked away on the spot, no matter what you offer me. No one at Google is standing up against this? I really hope that if this ever sees the light of the day, somehow in the end this backfires badly on them.

That is the danger of a fat paycheck.

I can't recall where I read it but the biggest danger with having a fat paycheck is that your lifestyle changes drastically. More money? Well, now you can do/afford more expensive things, you can take more luxuries, have a bigger place, a fancier car, and so on.

And the problem comes when you have to cut back all that, you need a job that can support that lifestyle. I believe the best thing you can do if you have a fat paycheck is to exactly take the opposite approach: keep living simply, save as much as you can, yes give yourself a treat from time to time, but essentially keep an average lifestyle.

The day you need to go elsewhere and you find out that you are against the wall because you need that much money and you can't find a similar income is when you're basically screwed.
