In February 2021, Distributed Denial of Secrets gave journalists financial documents from DICA showing Google was indirectly supporting the Myanmar coup by allowing Gmail addresses and Google run blogs to be used to run companies owned and operated by Myanmar's military and coup leaders.[2] After the public release of the 330 gigabyte leak, Google disabled the blog.
