Google does not owe us a living

No, but they do have a responsibility to not deliver stolen goods, which is what they are doing in this case. Those hijacking sites wouldn't be found by users, (essentially wouldn't exist), without the infrastructure that G and the other SE's created and maintain.

How anyone can say that this nonsense isn't criminal, (with Google and the others merely innocent third-parties), is beyond me.
