The JSON link at the bottom of  https://android.googlesource.com/ is not valid 
JSON

https://android.googlesource.com/?format=JSON

It starts with ")]}'" at the front of the file?  Maybe this is an attempt at 
JSONP gone wrong?

I should note that this is not particularly important to me.  (I'm not trying 
to use this part of the JSON api, just noting the error.)

This is an intentional feature to prevent cross-site scripting from reading the 
content of the JSON response by way of a <script>var data = </script><script 
src="https://android.googlesource.com/?format=JSON"> tag.
