This is absolutely correct. Google could care less about their bombed mashup. This is very much about satiating Proctor & Gamble's branding on future products and limiting PR damage. It's extremely sad when free speech takes a nosedive to corporate interests, but google started down this track long before youtube with the "good censor" memo. This is only a byproduct of a company that pushed a huge reality distortion field on its "don't be evil" policy quite some time ago.
