> 2,863 Live Keys on the Public Internet

It will be more interesting if they scan GitHub code instead. The number terrified me. Though I am not sure how many of that are live.

2k feels very small considering the number of business sites that embed Google Maps. I guess a lot of those sites use other website building services that handle the Google API keys for them, and/or they're old and untouched enough that no one enabled Gemini on them.

I had the same thought. I guess a lot of those keys may belong to dormant/deleted accounts and only a % of people who have enabled Gemini (presumably it required user action)

		I did. Specifically the part about "When you enable the Gemini API". This doesn't take into account that people may have had years old forgotten about other services they use.
