Google KNEW it was harvesting emails and passwords during Street View drive | Mail Online

Google KNEW it was harvesting emails and passwords during Street View drive | Mail Online: The Los Angeles Times published the report in full, which was the result of a 17-month long investigation by the FCC.

Google voluntarily gave the paper the report that detailed the entire investigation.

The revelation that a single engineer was responsible tallies with Google's defence that senior management did not devise or authorise the plan.

But the revelation that others new about it is a fresh embarrassment for the search giant.

'We decided to voluntarily make the entire document available except for the names of individuals,' a Google spokeswoman said to the Wall Street Journal.
