Given that many first world nations now avoid the US for data storage due to surveillance overreach, your statement comes across as rather ironic. As a Canadian, the US is definitely not the pinnacle of open democratic government. Your view of the US is a very US centric view. There is certainly a line somewhere, selling weapons for example is a pretty clear one. But this line hasn't been established on the data side, and I don't think the US is in a very good position to establish it given its poor track record in this area. But to the extent this line is written, it should be a law applying to all US companies, not cherry picking Google or other politically unfavourable companies.
