It’s double speak. The translation is “We are evil and if you say something about what you see, we will silence you.”.
They removed it from the main body as like, an organizing principle. and left it in only one sentence at the end. https://gizmodo.com/google-removes-nearly-all-mentions-of-dont-be-evil-from-1826153393
