The most obvious example would be the recent antitrust litigation.

But I think that falls into fighting to continue their terrible business practices.

The second is Google refusing warrants due to inadequacies. Google has stated they no longer respond to geofencing warrants although I am having a hard time finding data to back up this statement.

The third is a couple different cases involving private parties and state governments suing Google over violating privacy and illegally collecting data. Once again though, this probably falls under you definition of terrible business practices.

The fourth is Google's transparency reports that expose request from the government. They have certainly received government pushback from this but I can't really quantify this in any meaningful way.
