Google is not paying people to provide a service. They are paying a company.
I sympathize with the people who are underpaid, but their beef should be with their employers not with Google, even though as another commenter stated: Google is outsourcing non-compliance.
On a related note, if people working below the minimum wage are flying to protest at Google headquarters, someone is paying their airfare. Doesn't look like a spontaneous act to me.

When you go after the intermediary, they'll go down and another will rise up to take its place -- and thanks to limited liability, it'll often be the same executives running a different company. When you go to the top, you have a chance at improving the situation.

It's not tax evasion, sir, it's a business relationship with a company in the British Virgin Island. Also, how dare they organise for better pay? It must be a conspiracy. The riff raff really should know their place. Let them eat cake.
