Anyone can put in their own TOS that G has to rank them #1 on their SE for keyword1, keyword2, or keyword3 or be in violation of their website TOS and public domain law section X.XX. See what I mean? A good atty. with the right arguments could put a serious dent in G's inablities as an algo to properly rank websites (Freedom of speech or not) Obviously this "neighbor's cousin's friend" was savvy enough to convince the judge to hear their amended complaints. Those are the documents I'd like to read...
Google's TOS is about as meaningful as the TOS on anyone's website. Which may or may not be legally valid.
