That's true. What the current administration is doing is far more heinous than Google's apparent attempts to protect the hapless internet user.

FWIW, there's a wealth of SCOTUS opinions related to the internet and watchdog groups like EFF have their hands full keeping tabs on what the gov't is doing. And, in case you missed it, congress is giving the white house powers to shut down the internet. The 1st Amendment is being stressed and stretched quite thin these days.
