Most of every single fight was at the municipality or city level and not any larger than that. So while those companies may have had holds over that community in particular, those companies are not national companies like Google is. Sure if Google was able to change all those laws that could be a win but we all know they wouldn't stop there, and it would be less than a year before a very similar law would probably go up across the board. And you know it would pass cuz all they would have to say is "hey government want to take a looksies? Just make sure to pass this bill we wrote for ya"
