Jan 17, 2025, 05:40 PM
Google has implemented a new requirement for users of its search engine, mandating that JavaScript must be enabled to access Google Search. This change aims to enhance security by better protecting the platform against malicious activities, including bots and spam.

This update was first reported by TechCrunch and has since been confirmed by multiple sources.
