I did, and aside from youtube, I don't see any mention in the article of "google". Plus while what is listed out as being banned is all well and good, except one of them could have a whole lot of room for interpretation. Who's to say what determines incitement to hatred? All listed platforms are big established entities with bankrolls and all already don't really allow anything listed by the Irish, so really it just seems like an attempt at a money grab for Ireland to issue fines and collect cash whenever they decide.
