Apple runs certain aspects of iCloud on the Google Cloud Platform so there are likely to be fairly hefty contracts at stake...

Search for ‘Google Cloud’ in the following:

However penalizing/threatening a customer of Google Cloud for something totaly unrelated would open the road to an antitrust case as huge as Google leverage on current IT sector.

PS: On the otherside migrating all services out of Google Cloud would be a technical challenge (their needs are huge) but at the end of the day a minor annoyance for Apple.
