The Hammer, can you please show me the part of 2257 that says "and google is exempt"? I missed that part of the law.

I guess the part you missed is the part where it says the law pertains to the "publication" of sexually explicit material. Google does not publish anything, they just link to images and sites.
That's the exact reason that a thumb preview TGP like MadThumbs could get away with avoiding complying with the law if they chose to only link to thumbs that were hosted on the submitters server rather than uploading the thumbs to their own server and hosting the images themselves.
