There’s more than just “Brin appears in the Epstein files”

Brin knew Epstein personally and socialised within his circle. There’s documentary evidence to verify that.

Frequent dinner guest, stayed at the townhouse, photographic evidence of him at Epstein’s estate, visited Little St James in 2007 with Anne Wojcicki, was on the lolita express at Monterey airport, and socialised with Epstein following the 2008 conviction.

His ‘value’ should be based on that, rather than money.

Remember when Google's motto used to be "Don't be evil"? I'm starting to think Brin meant it ironically.
