Google Now Warns People About Unreliable Or Quickly Changing Search Results
https://www.vox.comGoogle is testing a new feature to notify people when they search for a topic that may have unreliable results. The move is a notable step by the world’s most popular search engine to give people more context about breaking information that’s popular online — like suspected UFO sightings or developing news stories — that are actively evolving.
The new prompt warns users that the results they are seeing are changing quickly, and reads, in part, “If this topic is new, it can sometimes take time for results to be added by reliable sources.” Currently, the company says the notice is only showing up in a small percentage of searches, which tend to be about developing trending topics.
