Google Search results are showing Reddit URLs altered to include a slur
Reddit URLs are being manipulated to include a slur in the subdomain, and those URLs are coming up in Google Search results.
The Verge experienced the problem on Tuesday, reporting that while doing a Google search, Reddit results that came up had a URL that looked like this: “https://2goback-[slur].reddit.com/r/[the rest of the URL]”.
One Reddit user posted about the problem on Monday, and other Redditors also noticed the issue (examples here and here).
