      Google is introducing a new feature that aims to simplify how users keep track of their favorite creators, journalists, and online personalities without the need to switch between various applications.

      Known as Search profiles, this new feature provides eligible publishers and creators with a specific area on Google Search to display their content from all over the web. It functions as a digital center that consolidates a creator’s latest articles, videos, social media posts, and other significant links in one location.

      **A centralized home for creators on Google**

      For a long time, discovering a creator’s latest work often required navigating through multiple platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X, personal websites, and newsletters. Google’s new Search profiles seek to alleviate this issue. Creators who meet the criteria can personalize their profile with an avatar, biography, website, and links to their social and video platforms. More importantly, this profile acts as a unified hub where audiences can easily find new content without scouring the internet.

      This feature is also intended to facilitate following creators. Users can directly follow publishers and creators from their Search profile, increasing the chance that future content will show up in Google Discover, the tailored feed available in the Google app.

      **Discover as an integral part of the experience**

      This initiative underscores Google’s increasing ambition to transform Search into more than merely a source of information. It is progressively becoming a venue for following people and sources, akin to how users subscribe to creators on social media platforms. Search profiles can be accessed via a creator’s Knowledge Panel, by clicking on a creator’s name in Discover, or through a direct web link. Google states that creators with a significant audience on at least one major social or video platform will be able to claim and customize their profiles from the start.

      In certain instances, claiming a Search profile may also result in the formation of a Knowledge Panel for eligible creators. Existing Knowledge Panels will be enhanced as well, featuring updated profile pictures, recent content, and direct links to the new profile page. The initial rollout will take place in the United States, with Google indicating plans to broaden access and introduce more features over time. For creators seeking to differentiate themselves online — and for fans aiming to keep up with them — Google’s Search results could become significantly more valuable than just a straightforward list of links.

      **Snap sent alerts to students during class hours despite knowing the risk of distraction**

      Investigations reveal how Big Tech has intentionally targeted school children.

      A New York Times examination of internal documents from lawsuits initiated by over 1,400 school districts against Meta, Snap, TikTok, and YouTube has uncovered that these companies consciously aimed at students, even as their safety teams expressed concerns about the potential harm. The documents paint a troubling picture. Snapchat sent notifications to teens during school hours, urging them to report on events taking place in their classrooms. A strategic document from Snapchat allegedly referred to phone use in classrooms as "under the desk" time.
