More research from Derek and his team about Google poisoning the SERPs for scrapers and trackers. They found Google was providing results based on just *one word* in the query, which would obviously throw off the entire SERP. Note, sounds like Google started this in early 2026 but seems to have ratcheted this up in September 2026. Check the post for the details, screenshots of the SERPs, and more.

@Derek_PerkinsOct 23

We just published some new research on a specific type of Google poisoning where they ignore the majority of the words in your query. This has been going on since early 2026, though it did spike in the last month alongside the rest of the poisoning. We also updated our original post with data about page 2 and the poisoning problem is significantly worse than originally reported. cc @rustybrick @lilyraynyc @glenngabe @brodieseo @CyrusShepard
