Some links to Polymarket's prediction markets briefly appeared in Google News search results, displayed alongside mainstream media news, but were subsequently removed. A Google spokesperson stated that the display was due to a system error, adding that "the website briefly appeared in Google News due to an error and is no longer displayed." Reportedly, before its removal, users discovered that Polymarket's market predictions also appeared below reports from mainstream media outlets such as Reuters and The Guardian in event-driven searches; for example, news and betting market information appeared simultaneously in searches related to "whether ships passed through the Strait of Hormuz."
