I’ve always wondered: how do all these things end up in Google? What’s submitting the link, or public thing links to it?

- userbinator 2y agoGoogle's own browser phones home with the URLs you put in it, presumably for malware scanning or some other "security"-excuse reason. I don't remember if there was a setting to stop that from happening, or if there was, whether the setting may still exist today, but that would be a good way for them to get otherwise-private URLs.
- MBCook 2y agoThat’s all I can think of. That or perhaps emails (in gmail or another web mailed viewed by Chrome) that contained the links.
