Well as far as I know, Google search doesn't tweak its algorithm to rank Google owned websites higher. This alone gives them some credibility...

Perhaps not, but they seem perfectly willing to use their search monopoly to help their Android business.

When the original Nexus launched they ran an add on the google.com homepage, right under the search bar, for what? Two weeks?

Can you imagine what that would cost any other manufacturer? I'm really surprised they haven't been called on it yet..

Except, of course, things like Maps and Places and stock quotes etc. etc..

That is not algorithm tweaking, that's a separate search.
