This an an interesting development and though I'm not really a fan of project veritas I am against censorship and generally speaking I'm against censorship across the board. I will also defend the free speech rights of those I disagree with and believe they have a right to express themselves.
Now, I'll admit I haven't watched the full video but my comment is in reference to Project Veritas in general. As I understand, Project Veritas received training and financial support from Eric Prince the owner of the private mercenary group Blackwater (which has now changed its name several times).
Prince declined to invest in Black Cube, but appears to have liked the idea of selling a service that provided undercover operatives. During the 2016 election, he became involved with James O’Keefe and Project Veritas, a group of conservative provocateurs who specialize in using hidden-camera footage and secret recordings. O’Keefe, a protégé of the conservative firebrand Andrew Breitbart, describes himself as a “guerrilla journalist” and has used undercover cameras in an effort to expose purported liberal bias in political groups and the media. Trump often promoted O’Keefe’s videos and met with O’Keefe just days after he declared his candidacy. (A few weeks before that, Trump had donated $10,000 to Project Veritas through his foundation.) It is unclear if Trump’s support of Project Veritas spurred Prince’s interest in the group, but in late 2015 or early 2016, Prince arranged for O’Keefe and Project Veritas to receive training in intelligence and elicitation techniques from a retired military intelligence operative named Euripides Rubio Jr. According to a former Trump White House official who discussed the Veritas training with Rubio, the former special operative quit after several weeks of training, complaining that the Veritas group wasn’t capable of learning. Rubio did not respond to requests for comment.

Imho and considering the above, I don't find PV to be a trustworthy organization at all.
However, I do not find Google to be a trustworthy organization either. So, idk what to make of this.
Cheers!
