Congrats to Google for making the right decision here. Doesn't matter which govt agency is hacking vulnerable software, plugging the vulnerabilities and kicking them out is the _absolutely_ right thing to do as a private multi-national corporation. If the western government in question wants to hack vulnerable software - they can create their own vulnerable software, ship it and distribute it. No one - utterly no government - democratic or not has any privileged right to hack market software and services. Try passing a law through both houses stating the US government has the right to exploit US companies - and watch the US economy collapse.
