Is this the same Google that was helping the Chinese government censor access to the Internet for political reasons? I'm sure their primary motivation is freedom and not money.

If you were to actually RTFA you would see that they freely admit to the free-enterprise (profit = evil?) aspects of freeing up the airwaves.

Why should laws written during the days of Marconi still apply when technology has advanced far beyond those limitations?

No. This is the Google that took the roads and cities off the map of Georgia the day after Russia invaded.
