It actually wasn't, I used to think that as well, but they just moved it to a different section of their Code of Conduct, out of the Preface. Part of the reason so many people think it was removed is because of the countless headlines saying it was removed...

(from the preface)

They did violate federal labor laws by firing 3 employees who brought forth a lawsuit alleging the clause was a contractual obligation, though. So that sucks.

It may be in their code of conduct, but that’s not their motto. As of 2015, their motto is "Do the right thing."
