Websites do have enough possibilities to restrict legal access to their content. Google is respecting entries in robots.txt for search restrictions.
If some media lobbyists are whining about Google not paying for their news snippets they talk about it like they are forced to show snippets from their site on Google but in fact, they are not. They just want to cash grab successful internet companies and initiate a smear campaign against them like it is done in several newspapers in Germany in the last few weeks.
