Google Cookie

Google is testing writing out a 57 words, 364 characters, notice on its home page, about its cookie usage and data usage. It is super weird to see three lines of legal text right below the Google search box on its home page.

This was spotted by Radu Oncescu who said this is coming up in some EU regions. He posted this screenshot on X:

I have not been able to replicate this, but I am based in New York - have any of you seen this?

Do you think this is intentional or a bug?

Forum discussion at X.
