Google released its annual web spam report yesterday, documenting some of the company’s spam-fighting activity in 2016.

The other metric that stood out was that hacked sites continue to rise, this time by 32 percent from 2015 to 2016, but it was a 180 percent increase from 2014 to 2015 in the previous report. Here are some data highlights from this year’s report:
