That was well dealt with. Especially the part about deleting all long-press recordings from the servers. Very thorough Google!

- Aissen 9y agoHmm, not really. If they know it's from a long-press, at least the activity website should say so, and not from "hotword activation". But otherwise, yes, this is stellar. Also, hardware is hard.
- 6d6b73 9y agoWhat about deleting everything from backups? Will they spend time to search all of the backups they have and delete that data? Is the data really deleted or just marked as deleted so it's not shown on the website?
- puzzle 9y agoThey don't need to search backups manually. All products are required to have automated pipelines (along with monitoring) to wipe out user data.
- 6d6b73 9y agoAny source on that?
- puzzle 9y agoThere's an example of the Music pipeline going wrong: https://landing.google.com/sre/book/chapters/data-integrity.html#google-musicmarch-2012-runaway-deletion-detection-JMsvtqsz https://landing.google.com/sre/book/chapters/data-integrity.... Another reference for Fi: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pliu1/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/pliu1/ "Redesigned and refactored the Fi user data deletion system to ensure compliance with data deletion policy, to add instrumentation, and to improve performance" There is a dedicated team that tracks compliance for all products.
