Whileas I am not a developer nor member of the Tor Project I will say 
that tor has not and will not censor their network. You can place the 
blame and submit your complaints to Google for blocking Tor. Using any 
search engine you are able to find the address of their headquarters and 
write them a letter. The Tor Project is unable to control Google's 
actions Since Google is blocking Tor users it's not Tor blocking Google.
