Significant volatility affected Google search results during Thanksgiving week, with reports of Google Ads account hijackings raising security concerns. Gemini 3 now automatically powers Google AI Mode for complex queries, and Google's Web Guide increasingly appears in the All tab. Google staff said AI-related search changes are difficult and future SEOs may provide GEO-detox services. Local search showed issues: the local pack 'more' button routed to the Places tab then malfunctioned, and Local Service Ads is testing removal of the more results button. Google Ads added fixed custom views support, new trends and performance-by-stage reports, and expanded message assets to Facebook Messenger and Zalo.
