      Any data you submit to Google is stored and analysed. That’s different from sending keystrokes as they happen though.

      I’m all for criticising invasive data use and collection which Google is definitely guilty of. It’s not the same as keylogging though which is not just a privacy concern but a pretty serious security one as well. Also we have actual evidence here of Tencent doing this which makes a difference to me at least.
