Neither you, me or Google are “benevolent actors”. I don’t at all mind when less-than-perfect entities help people — regardless of what else they do that is right or wrong. Google, as a group of human beings, does both good and bad. To claim that it’s problematic to accept help from people who are members of a group of people who also do bad things means we would also have to deny help from e.g. well-meaning Russian citizens.
