Well sure, but how do you query the data they're hosting for free without using google services?

Well, sure. But it is convenient to have lots of sample data. Also you get the first TiB per month free in BQ.

Also note that anyone can make a dataset available for public use, where they pay the storage and the consumer pays the compute. The official Google datasets are just curated and maintained by Google itself.
