The end of 2025 is coming, and we're starting to see year-end recaps about anything and everything. The lists are interesting, but the videos make you feel what the year gone past was like. Google's Year in Search video addresses what the world was doing on the internet in 2025, from record-breaking achievements to K-Pop Demon Hunters to artificial intelligence to big news stories you may have forgotten since the beginning of the year. Overall, the video is rather positive.
On the other hand, Google's 2025 Year in Search statistical report presents some questions. In the stats for the United States, the overall most common search term in 2025 was Charlie Kirk. Meanwhile, under their most-searched people list, Zohran Mamdani is at the top. Excuse me, wasn't Charlie Kirk a person? Where there was once a button to learn more, we have buttons that say "Catch Me Up in AI Mode." No thanks. There are plenty of categories to explore so that you can see if your interests match up with the rest of your nation's interests, or the world as a whole.

Kirk was searched so many times because no one knew who he was before the shooting. He was just a fringe lunatic who spouted hate, mirages, and fantasies.
