> making Google’s index of the web available for use by competitors

What incentive would Google have to continue populating that index?

Would I be breaking the law if I independently crawled and hosted an index without publishing an API for it?

> since no one other than Google is really allowed to crawl the web

Maybe this is the problem that needs solving.
