Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.
“No true end-to-end encryption for most meetings” Kimi K2 · Video conferencing · negative prompt · hard negative
“Recordings and other meeting content may be stored, and work or school accounts can have organization-level access and controls.” GPT-6 Luna · Video conferencing · negative prompt · soft negative
“the French government announced a complete phase-out and ban of Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet for public officials” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Video conferencing · negative prompt · soft negative
“widely used, but they are part of major tech ecosystems and are often discussed in the context of privacy tradeoffs” Perplexity Sonar · Video conferencing · negative prompt · soft negative
Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 160 of the 185 answers that named Google Meet and are not a share of its labels.
497 of the 497 domain citations in answers naming Google Meet came from somebody else's page.
Pages are listed as the models cited them.
Search figures are US estimates from DataForSEO, read September 28, 2026; AI search demand is its modeled, directional estimate, not a count of queries to any assistant. The answers are this edition's. Two measurements side by side: neither is read as the cause of the other.

Every page google.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. Read September 29, 2026.
An email the morning each edition publishes: where this product moved, where it held, and by how much against the noise floor. One address, confirmed by a click; a stop link in every email.

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Google Meet's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Google Meet, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.
A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for Google Meet by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
Google Meet is among the products AI models recommend first in Video conferencing this edition. Each badge says so in the buyer's words, names the edition, and links to the standing. The next edition issues a new badge; this one stays true as a record of October 2026.
Badges read on light and dark pages. Alt text carries the claim, the category, the edition and the index, so it stays a citation where the image does not load.
