Google has also been experimenting with using Rust within Chrome[0]. They're working on autocxx to make C++/Rust FFI much smoother[1].

There's a lot of inertia at Google with regards to Rust. Things are happening slowly there, but they're happening. I'm sure it'll be more public soon, but they didn't miss out on the Rust-grab after Mozilla let the project go, even if they haven't been as public about it.

The fact that both Microsoft and Amazon, Google's major competitors, are investing in Rust means that Google would be quite foolish to not be looking as well.

To a lesser extent so far, yes. As you mentioned there's the Fuchsia stuff, and some other smaller open source repositories. But there's also other areas, for example Android.

Google is also listed as a sponsor here: https://www.rust-lang.org/sponsors

They might not be as invested as other companies, but I bet they'll eventually ramp up their involvement.

ChromeOS uses Rust for its hypervisor stuff, this is actually where Firecracker (from Amazon) started.

ChromeOS uses Rust for crosvm, which Amazon's firecracker was derived from.
