Are we just assuming good faith on the part of government now?
I personally think Google should be an antitrust target, but I'm not placated by a "don't worry, the government has all of our best interests at hearts" argument.
If they want to release a "teaser" of their allegations I don't think we need to buy it at face value. Personally I'll reserve my judgement until they make real allegations.
