Google is essentially creating a copy of the world wide web and serving it "faster" from their servers. Aside from the huge privacy issues (Google seeing/storing everything you see online), GWA has also been breaking things like forums and letting people login as someone else.
You can block GWA, by banning the IP address ranges:
72.14.192.0 – 72.14.192.255

AOL has a ton of caching proxy servers, and a few of the larger European ISPs also run big caches. Cache is pretty much a good thing, I would much rather have Google, AOL, or some other ISP serve up my content to their customers than to be using my own bandwidth.
