"Don't be evil" is still in the code of conduct, it's just the last line now. Journalism, as it usually does, perpetuated a misleading scary story in order to garner eyeballs/clicks.

Google has more than one code of conduct[0], but I only found one that is as you described[1].

Yes, that is the Google code of conduct. It's the only document that has ever had "don't be evil" in it, and it's still in there.
