A textbook publisher is not obligated to publish every textbook where there is the slightest demand for it.
A newspaper is not obligated to publish every letter-to-the-editor which comes its way.
A scientific journal is not obligated to publish every article submitted. Articles are even retracted.
Their failure to publish is neither "cutting someone's tongue" nor "censorship". Or, if it is censorship, it's been around since forever, making the term meaningless.
Why should Google have an obligation to publish that no other media company has?
(I also agree with DanBC that what you wrote is not true. Among other things, why are there so many anti-vaxxers when the anti-anti-vaxxers have used the techniques you mentioned, and more, and when there is no credible doubt about the lack of connection between vaccinations and autism?)
