Data "ownership" is a somewhat complex issue. When Google, or any other data broker offers some service in exchange for the data, they are obtaining their own data from the user. The idea of "ownership" in that case differs, as the content and 'meaning' of the data is now no longer owned by the original owner. In fact, the data itself has lost all or much of its value in "ownership" or "privacy" by the user, and this is reflected in an economic sense by the bulk pricing data brokers like Google, etc... offer through various services for adverts, etc.
In terms of "moving data" by means of "ownership", Google and the other companies, already state in their ToS that they can move the data between locales at their whim. The servers, hardware and networks they utilize are owned or rented by them. Paired with the ToS, and the simple fact that Google offers these services in exchange to exploit their users' data as a currency, Google is not concerned about the privacy aspects.
They are simply concerned about the value of the data they are gathering.
I've interviewed at the major software companies, including Google, Amazon, and Microsoft. In all interviews I was interviewed by the people and managers I would be working with. In many cases, I would also interview with members of other teams I would be expected to interact with. I now realize I must have taken that for granted and did not realize it was a privilege.
