IANAL, and I'm reading between the (redacted) lines. Did anyone get the sense that Uber's lawyers line of questioning was leading towards the possibility that Alphabet let this theft of their IP happen to catch Uber with their pants down?

There are questions about how Larry felt about Mr. Levandowski real contribution to Waymo/Chauffeur(p21 Line 15). They are asking about David Drummond's position on Uber's Board(p40 line 13). This leads to questions about when Larry knew Mr Levandowski was leaving the company(p45 Line 14). These lead to questions about Mr. Levandowski's attempt to spin off a team from Google/Alphabet (p64 Line 2). ... Setting up the dates on a redacted email, they to be talking about Larry's knowledge of IP and people taken by Uber for autonomous cars (p181 line 10).

Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but what are the implications of Google getting sloppy with protecting itself at the risk of catching a competitor steal your work?
