What happened to Trust and Safety at Google?

Back during times I worked inside Google, I was familiar with the
rigorous process required to get new features pushed to production
that had any privacy or other similar potentially impactful aspects.
Google's T&S (Trust and Safety) team was second to none.

Perhaps all those Googlers were laid off. Hard to explain otherwise
how Google could push out a feature like Google Earth AI imagery that
is so easily used for evil that Google had to withdraw it after one
frigging day!
