It seems to me that Google considers itself above all law. At least,
they'll behave that way until beaten into line. In Australia, the mining
and gambling industries (to same just two) have done much the same.
Demonstrating yet again the fundamental criminality of the business

more accurate to say that business tends to attract minds that tend to
be attracted to criminal behaviour.
