I don't think so. Differences:

1. Google's logo is a heart rather than an oval.

2. The shades of colors are quite different - Google has purple and saturated shades of orange rather than various shades of yellow/orange.

3. The angles are different - Google is straight-on while yours is oblique.

I could just as easily argue that your logo copies the flip-books I made out of yellow sticky notes in elementary school. Same colors, same fold-out movement, same angle as a flip-book on the table.

It's natural to see similarities, but that doesn't mean someone copied you unless the logos are basically identical. There are only a limited number of design choices that actually work out well, and when you consider the millions of logos out there, it's basically a given that a highly-publicized new product will be similar to something.

yes. this. in this case it would seem "There Is Nothing New Under The Sun"
No. The global tech authority did not copy a Latin Instagram-for-fashion company's design for their health related mobile app. How did this make it to the HN front page? This is garbage.
