And what happens when Google are the one doing the MITTM attack?

It all comes down to who do you trust.




Has Google ever modified other websites' pages like this?


Yes, I believe they call it Adsense.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AdSense "How AdSense works

(1) The webmaster inserts the AdSense JavaScript code into a webpage."

So this is the webmaster modifying his own page. It's not Google injecting Javascript into someone else's page like CMA Communications or Comcast is said to be doing.
