As strangely-named as that one is (I'd prefer a filename like
"digitalocean-geo-ip-list.csv" instead of "google.csv"), I suspect
that's one of the sources that the GitHub project draws from.
Of course, using each Cloud Service Provider's list directly is the
better approach, it's also more work because the format varies among
the providers that do it. I find the GitHub project reduces hassle
here because they're putting everything together in one place, so
it's convenience at the risk of not necessarily being up-to-date.

The profit motive is the pressure point for this conflict -- they
don't want to lose any paying customers, including spammers (at least
the ones who don't utilize fraudulent payment methods), and since
they've become a large provider they have an opportunity to choose to
be a positive contributor to the overall health and reliability of
the internet.
Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that they've chosen this path yet,
but everyone who uses their services can help by placing phone calls
to their technical support to ask them to resolve the blacklisting
problem (if their staff keep getting calls about this problem, then
that can motivate them to take it seriously, especially if they
recognize that it's bad for customer retention).
