Google’s Data Safety section also requires app developers to disclose types of data collected and shared. Revisiting respective apps shows common patterns like the importance of identifiers, but also differences such as the location being a more frequent data type for sharing.

Very interesting work on how economists perceive null results TL;DR.
1) Economists do penalize null effects
2) How to communicate the null matters.
3) Surprisingly, they penalize them even if that null effect is "surprising," inconsistent with bias in favor of surprising results.
