Is litigation supposed to be a indicator of legitimacy or something? Anyone can file a lawsuit for any reason. In addition, most (all?) of the lawusits being dismissed without trial, which suggests they were rubbish to begin with.

No, it’s supposed to be an indicator of “we have institutions to handle this and we don’t need Google to take on that role.”
