Snowden has no reason to lie; he wouldn't have spoken out and ruined his life without strong moral convictions.
Larry Page has every reason to lie; probably enforced by the US government. The fact Google are operating within the law doesn't mean anything when such open-ended laws as the patriot act exist.

Please don't ask me to summarise the revelations of the last few months. Reading the Guardian reports on the issue would be a good starting point.
Tl;dr: Google allowed the NSA unrestricted access to every Google service. No legal challenges were made.

Using the bandwidth you're paying for is not an "abuse". It's pointless calling even Google Fiber unlimited - as you've stated anyone using up to the limit will be restricted.
"It's unlimited as long as you don't try and use it all the time!" What a load of bullshit.
I'm surprised the EFF were expecting Google to maintain a higher standard than other ISPs, especially since revelations that Google allowed the NSA a backdoor into every system.
