A collection of 2,500 leaked internal documents from Google filled with details about data the company collects is authentic, the company confirmed today. Until now, Google had refused to comment on the materials.
The documents in question detail data that Google is keeping track of, some of which may be used in its closely guarded search ranking algorithm. The documents offer an unprecedented — though still murky — look under the hood of one of the most consequential systems shaping the web
Now it would be bloody awesome if someone would leak how their data collection in Android works and how much of their privacy policy is actually not just for good PR.

Where are these docs? No one ever links to them or says where you can find them
Fr, just like when those game source codes leak or whatever. It’s cool and people want to download it just because, just link them lmao
Thousands of documents, which appear to come from Google’s internal Content API Warehouse, were released March 13 on Github by an automated bot called yoshi-code-bot.
God, I hate GitHub. It always gets stuck when there are many changes
They were leaked specifically to “SEO experts” who shared portions of it. I don’t know if it was leaked publicly.
I’m basically what happened is the leaker is an SEO guy, that runs an SEO company, and leaked the documents to another SEO guy.
RemindMe! 12h
I wonder if any are on Internet archive, and perhaps that’s why the ddos
That’d not where they’ve been primarily located, no.
