Google is now sending abuse reports complaining of DDoS attacks against their services. While they believe the IPs are participating in a botnet, it is clear that they are Tor exit relays.
I don't know why they are sending us the report after the attacks have ended. Besides, since Google services are unusable over Tor, this should not have caused them much damage.
I suspect the attacker is trying to get relays shut down by triggering Google reports that would scare off the ISPs.
If you are an ISP and you have received the same report, please let me know. I'd like to know if this was global or if we've been "selected".

We observed IPs under your control participating in DDoS attacks targeting Google services, including a prolonged DDoS attack from January 28-31 against the Google Search Console.
The attacks were Layer 7 / HTTP request floods. Your participating IPs are listed below, along with the stop time in UTC and targeted Google IPs. We request that you enforce your Acceptable Use Policy against these customers.

Note we believe some of these IPs are part of the Meris or Dvinis botnets. If you are a residential Internet service provider, it is possible that your customers' routers themselves have been compromised. You should research the Meris botnet and take appropriate actions to have them secure their CPE (customer-premises equipment).

We received 2 DDoS reports in Oct 2021 and 3 automated scraping notices in Nov and Dec 2021.
We are seeing automated scraping of Google Web Search from a large number of your IPs/VMs. Automated scraping violates our /robots.txt file and also our Terms of Service. We request that you enforce your Acceptable Use Policy against these customers.

Yo, I have some from google.com too. Sometimes the IP's of artikel10, relayon and me are together in the abuse log. All normal automated abuse stuff. On relpy's no one answered.

This is probably the main reason those reports are being sent. Meris is a huge botnet using (at least) tens of thousands of compromised routers. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/new-m-ris-botnet-breaks-ddos-...
Those notices were probably sent automatically to many ISPs hoping some of them would get their customers to fix their routers, and tor exits were probably just not filtered.
