Taken at face value these allegations (revelations?) are concerning. I buy that Google is not a public utility, and as a private company they have the right to do as they like, but the ethics detection indicators start pointing to nefarious when they use their monopoly status to actively influence politics.
Problem is we can't trust this source, he's been using dirty tactics before. Still, someone needs to publish a rebuttal with a satisfactory level of transparency that explains some of the statements in this video. And the discussion that should ensue is definitely of general interest, and should not be knee-jerkingly flagged into oblivion IMO.

It's a set of serious accusations that deserve a coherent response, not being aggressively muted from the internet (presumably via bogus trade secret accusations).
