That's a rather biased way of phrasing it. Did humans evolve mouths and ears specifically to destroy evidence? Those settings were chosen because the platform was designed to emulate hallway chats, and the "records" are an implementation detail.

If this goes through, all that will happen is that Google will re-engineer the backend to evade whatever standard set by the ruling. Who wins from this outcome? Perhaps the engineers getting paid and promoted to work on said project. Certainly not the courts or the "people".
