In your position, you actually have a requirement to pay the correct sales tax to your state based on where you live. This is more complex than 'I wasn't charged it, so I don't owe it'

You are breaking the law if you do not pay what you owe.

Google is using the various laws of these countries, and treaty agreements, to avoid taxes in one place to pay them at a different (much lower) rate in another.

Google is not breaking the law.
