Does Google Spy on My Analytics Account

I have over 100 blogs that I use to generate links to my money sites. I have many of these "feeder blogs" set up under the same Google Analytics account (about 25 per account)

My question is - does google look at my analytics account and see that all of the 25 blogs are owned by the same person - and then do they discount the links to my money sites from those 25 sites because they are link spam.

I would think this would be a conflict of interest - but hen again, they are Google, they can do whatever they want!

Thanks

    I've heard that some say you cannot rank as well when analytics is installed. When its installed, their algo can see your site better. But perhaps its a myth

    Yes they can see what your up to, and they can see what server the sites are on and see all the links pointing to different sites on the same server. They can see this whether you use analytics or not but using it just confirms there suspictions. I wouldn't worry too much, I have put links on one off my sites the other day, they are both in my analytics and yesterday it ranked number 1 in google for both search terms I was aiming for.

    They already know stuff like that exists anyway, they don't need analytics to do it... If they see a bunch of sites all about the same age then they can probably get a sense of whats going on... They know every trick imaginable because they see it thousands of times everyday first hand.
