Can you point to where it says that in the report? It actually says:

an IME will commonly reach out over the network to a cloud-based service for suggestions if suitable suggestions are not available in the input method’s local database.

So it doesn't send "every key typed".

Until you realized what sequence of letters most commonly not have any suggestion. That's right, when you type your password.
