Google are definitely on Equinix Sydney - a quick look by anyone at their entry on peeringdb would show that.
Not being on an MLPA doesn't mean someone isn't "open", just means they're not on an MLPA.

So it seems they have no interest in sending traffic back to us over Equinix Exchange any more.  Not a very open policy for peering if they are selectively refusing to route traffic to Equinix Exchange participants.

And unfortunately the routing policies don't seem to differ between residential and commercial (dsl and fiber), though I don't know of any AU provider that does (maybe AAPT before they sold residential?). What exetel do with traffic is interesting too, it might indeed be as Skeeve suggests, the death of pipe peering...
