Google could invest all this money into buying a basketball team or something if they wanted. Instead they choose to do something good which could potentially save hundreds of thousands of lives every year. And I wonder why/. geeks would view this in a negative way.

Observed black holes have so far been either 1) Stellar - tens or may be hundreds of solar mass or 2) Supermassive - millions to billions of solar mass. We haven't seen anything in between.
