I don't see how they could 'refuse' to service Germany or any other country merely by offering their site in an uncensored form. Germany could very well put up some type of firewall to block residents access to google, but at least then the blame would be solely upon Germany, not upon google, and google wouldn't be assisting in censorship.

The internet has become a sort of a news source like newspapers or television; to see the biggest players actively cooperating with censors so easily is disturbing.
