I think they changed the categories, and now they are only about whether they fight against the government or not, and even those aren't that great. Take AT&T for example. Yes, they "publish transparency reports", but very weak/misleading ones. They don't publish everything. AT&T gives NSA the whole firehose to their cables, and they still get to get a star for "publishing transparency reports" which don't even include that important tidbit of information?
They have nothing to do with how invasive their privacy policies are against their users, how much they track you, how good of an encryption they use or anything like that. Maybe they should make a separate benchmark for all of those, too, if they're not going to integrate them anymore. Because soon we'll be seeing headlines like "Facebook has 5/5 stars on privacy!" - which is just misleading to most people.
