Google is a US company, that's why they have to obey US laws. Companies don't pick and choose which laws to approve, they pick and choose where to do business.

The parochial "US company/US customers/US laws" argument here and elsewhere in the thread has already been addressed.

It's a long time since Google has been merely American, its on everybody's desktop and is a huge multinational that is part of everybody's culture.
