The ruling over copyright infringement has generally been that devices, sites, etc, which have significant non-infringing uses are permissible. Most people, I think, would agree that Google is primarily a non-infringing site, whereas the primary purpose of the site against which this ruling has been made is to give people access to copyright-infringing material.
