Amazon using it‘s marketplace data for their own purposes, while obviously also problematic, is not the same thing as going behind their AWS clients back and using their data. The data literally belongs to the client. I‘m pretty sure they are only accessing their data as allowed by the contracts for maintenance for example. Likewise for GCP and Azure. Regarding your second argument. Doubleclick is on the consumer side. That‘s why GCP has it‘s own CEO, it‘s own buildings and org in general. They are seperate from the consumer side. Put yourself in Google‘s shoes. They can make tons of money by revolutionizing the health care sector, improving patient care at the same time. Why would they fuck it up by feeding data to the ad side illegally. The risk is too high. No one would ever trust them again and they‘d probably be sued out of existence. Is it not feasible that they are simply trying everything they can to become less reliant on ads. They have stated several times that the cloud side will be the dominant revenue source in the future. Is that possible? No idea. But strategically it makes sense to push cloud with all possible force.
