On what grounds would the govt. force Apple to put certain apps. in the App. Store anyways.

Maybe Google could press a case that preventing them or AdMob from collecting customer data is anti-competitive.
Or better yet, vote with your computer and jailbreak your device. There is not much stopping you from opening up your phone and doing what you want with it.

That said - I do suspect the AdMob thing is going to turn nasty very soon.
