I suppose if at some point Larry Page himself confirms that they did know all about NSA surveillance and actively participated, people will still find ways to acquit the beloved company :) I'm not sure if it's the force of the "no evil" brand or maybe inherent dislike of the government, but user loyalty in PRISM companies is quite remarkable.

That's because PRISM deals with court orders for specific users' data. Every company in the world complies with those court orders. Why should we demonize these companies for doing something everybody else does and that everybody has always known they do?

Why single out Page and Google?

They singled themselves out with "don't be evil". Which was an implicit critique of other tech giants.
