> That said, I feel like I've seen the "Google releases [x]" headline on Hacker News more of late, and I am not sure if that's because submitters are excited and editorializing, or if there's genuine confusion. I'd love to hear any thoughts people have on that. Yes, I've been seeing this a lot lately too, and am frustrated by it because it seems to imply a much bigger commitment on Google's part than "this is an employee's personal side project". Hence why I posted the note. Thank you for the clarification on the exact policy; since I'd been seeing a lot of these side projects posted under the Google account on Github, I figured it was something like that, but it's nice to see it spelled out.
