Not speaking for the website operator but it appears that he includes the language as an ass covering like most crypto developers do in accord with legal advice to invoke protection of the herd. What is called elsewhere "standards of the profession" meaning that if all members behave in the same way no harm will come to any of them because they have agreed to not blame each other, will lie for each other, will screw customers in the same fashion, will excuse ineptitude, will bill for services in concert, will seek government protection for monopolistic practices, as professionals are selected, schooled, trained and certified to do to display the exculpatory appelation. Like the oldest professions: corn-holing and stealing food and clubbing your baby's mother and claiming direct approval from the various gods in your image invented and worshipped for auto-eroticism. Then there are the financial reasons for using the "do no evil" lingo. Knowing that your product will be used for exactly that evil you advertise its value by forbidding that evil. See any bible for enlighenment. Or any product warranty or privacy protection or national security. In a pinch, claim mathematical unbreakable crypto, and wheel out the standard fault of implementation when your math disintegrates. In these times forbidding use of crypto for terrorism, paedophilia and crimes is the very best way to attract high-paying customers who do just those, in particular warmakers, governments, banks, pornographers, cryptographers and those who racketeer against those fat heads, i.e. Robin Hood hackers. Now please describe what are you offering with baloney oppostion, I want to steal it and kill you if it is really good, which I have to say, speaking as a pro everready to flog crap, it probably is pure gold.
