It's an odd argument to say that Google must do it in this poor way, as it is atleast better than how the others would do it. If Google stopped offering it to not waste compute cycles of others or invade too much, that would be a good choice. It seems Google would not like to lead by example but rather take the profits and risk the fine as cost-of-doing-business. If google would stop doing it. It would atleast cause >30% of the worldwide ads to run arbitrary code. A massive improvement on both user privacy and climate. The wasted cycles are not free. The solution is easy on Google's side. Just don't do it and accept the reduction in revenue. But I guess the economic incentives are just too big, like you say.
