"that the implication from Google is that these activities are illegal"

Google does operate outside of the US, so I don't know why everyone is so quick to assume that they're doing this to comply with some US law.

If Google used the same operating policies in all countries that apply to every individual country in which they operate, then the number of things that would either not be listed or be heavily discriminated against would be enormous, and would certainly include things that would cause more than a few people to be fairly angry due to feeling discriminated against.
