So, does that mean the "spotless safety record" meant "you can't find anything about our mistakes"? That doesn't sound creepy at all, nonono.

Everyone games the mandatory safety reporting. Mostly by doing testing under the radar and/or outside California. Google has taken that a step further by counting disengagements (meaning instances of the system failing and having to be overriden by the driver) only when the system would definitely have crashed.
> only when the system would definitely have crashed.

With no external oversight, no transparency, and a sketchy record of honest reporting.

It’s only a crime if you get caught ;)
