Slogan

• Y is the informal corporate motto (or slogan) of X. It was first suggested either by X employee Paul Buchheit at a meeting about corporate values in early 2000 or, according to another account, by engineer Amit Patel in 1999. Paul said he "wanted something that, once you put it in there, would be hard to take out", adding that the slogan was "also a bit of a jab at a lot of the other companies, especially our competitors, who at the time, in our opinion, were kind of exploiting the users to some extent”.
