The main takeaway for me is that Google is caught lying. Many things were already assumed but Google used to deny them.
- They claimed that clicks were not a ranking factor, it turns out it is.
- Also turns out that they are using Chrome data for ranking purposes (Not good for the ongoing lawsuit)
- There is also a field called something like "is small personal site" and it presumed that those sites are penalized.

- kobalsky 2y agodidn’t they just leak the schema? we know they may be tracking that information but we don’t know how it affects the model
- _heimdall 2y agoWould they track the data if they haven't been using it, or didn't expect to use it in the future?
