What is even more interesting is the fact that these results gets refreshed every day and you will get a new set of random results the next day. One day we got the ‘blue bettle trailer reaction’, ‘lifeweaver’, and ‘shane mchamon injury’ queries whereas the other day we were greeted with ‘drake search and rescue’, peaches song Mario movie, and ‘catch’ #13 ‘craig robinson’, none of which we have manually searched before.
To make matter worse, users are still getting these results even though they have turned off/paused their search history. So this gave rise to a concern that their account was hacked and the hacker was using their Google account across YouTube and making these random searches. However, even after changing their password and enabling 2Fa, they were still facing this issue, so they took a little breather. Moreover, since the issue is affecting the masses further cemented the fact that this is indeed a bug and not a security concern. With that said, if you are also getting bugged by this issue, then this guide will make you aware of a couple of workarounds to rectify this problem. Follow along.
