How'd we ever know if they did? Are there independent audits or would discovery that they have been doing that depend on a whistleblower? If we know anything about corporations it's that they have zero problems with violating laws as long as they'll have mode more money than the slap on the wrist fine or class action settlement they'd pay out assuming they are ever caught in the first place.

I disagree that they would make more money by lying directly and explicitly like that, and yes it would be very difficult to cover up a lie like that. Literally millions of people would know, because any employee at Google or anyone who inspects the code of any google web app would learn of the lie.
