← Measured in the wild

oauth2.googleapis.com

classified as first-party · 2

This page aggregates measured, corroborated evidence: donors' iPhones recorded apps contacting this domain, every claim below was reported by separate accepted donations and published under a human verdict (later rows for an approved app inherit its verdict). A contact is a measurement, not an accusation — it does not show what data was sent.

What our research panel found AI-drafted · human-reviewed

We ask several independent AI models the same question and publish their answers separately — cross-vendor agreement is evidence against fabrication, and disagreement is worth seeing. 3 of 3 models answered, overall confidence high. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.

Anthropic Claude — first-party

oauth2.googleapis.com is Google's OAuth 2.0 token endpoint, and the app is published by Google, so this is first-party authentication infrastructure rather than a tracking or ad endpoint. Account sign-in traffic is consistent with the app's declared collection of email address and user IDs, so nothing here indicates an undisclosed data flow.

OpenAI — first-party

oauth2.googleapis.com is a Google OAuth service domain and is plausibly first-party for Google Authenticator. The broad declared collection label covers likely authentication-related identifiers, so an undisclosed flow cannot be established from the provided data.

Google Gemini — first-party

oauth2.googleapis.com is an authentication endpoint operated by Google, making this a first-party domain for Google Authenticator. The app declares collecting account and user identifiers, which aligns with standard OAuth authentication.

Think something here is wrong?

Evidence and research improve when people push back. Tell us what to re-check — a misattributed domain, an outdated classification, a claim about your own app — and a human will review it. Responses can take up to 30 days.

If you leave an email it is encrypted at rest and opened only to answer you — never shared, never used for anything else. It is erased 30 days after we resolve this (or 180 days if it is still open) without you asking, and you can erase it sooner at any time; either way your correction stays, anonymously. Leave it blank and your request is fully anonymous from the start (we store no IP address either way).
