It is at will employment, the company makes it clear what you have done there, they want to have a say on it.

If you want independence, goes to academia instead (though it is not easy to obtain it either)

It is at will research funded by google, the researcher makes it clear what their findings were, they want the original research paper to have its say based on results not spin.

If google wants specific outcomes from research, go to the marketing department instead of funding real research.
