No, they're suggesting that given that Google has chosen to provide free static hosting, Europe has decided they can't moderate it with purely automated systems with no appeals process.

This is like running a restaurant in the US, and not being able to discriminate by race. You're not required to run a restaurant, and certainly aren't required to run one that gives away free food, but if you are certain obligations come attached.
