"Google used language from “Star Wars” as a code name for the deal, according to the lawsuit, which redacted the actual name. The draft version of the suit says it was known as Jedi Blue" https://t.co/6rLE424rdn

"According to the draft version, Ms. Sandberg signed the deal with Google. The draft version also cites an email where she told CEO Mark Zuckerberg and other executives: 'This is a big deal strategically.'" https://t.co/bB2AgMvAaJ
