That is not what the note said. It said that screenshots made their way outside the company.

I would associate that with an email account that wasn't the work account, a printed page that was taken off-premises, a non-work cloud-hosted storage service, or to a computer that wasn't a work computer. It does not say that the place the information was sent to was any third party.

It could turn out that the information was sent to a third party, but that has not (yet) been claimed.

Ah, I follow. "Outside the company" could mean "cold storage."

Yup! I assume that at this point general counsel is involved in everything Google says publicly; it's then worth nitpicking at the exact details of what has or has not been admitted, because legal folk definitely have!
