I feel there's a strong argument to be made that these organizations should be required to release these models publicly. These are built on the works of the public at large, and the public should get the full benefit of them.

Whatever effort Google has put into building the model is infinitesimally small compared to the work of the creators they're harvesting.

I don't expect this to happen easily, if at all, but I'm strongly in favor of it, and would even support legislation to that effect.
