It showed a Wikipedia highlight on the source of the webpage, which said if the result was safe and highlighted whether the result was an organic search or a paid advertisement.

But, with the update, Google had made the panel much more robust and interactive.

The company also noted that “our early data indicated that people are more likely to consult these panels when looking for important information such as health” and that “this is encouraging given the COVID crisis and the spread of misinformation about the COVID vaccine. “.
