So is this just something Google does or are they under some sort of contract or law?

There's a free app built into Android phones. It can detect seismic waves, which are different than say a truck driving by. These waves are automatically reported, and if enough of these reports are made Google sends out a warning. This is free and is still being developed, this headline sucks.
