Google said on Tuesday, December 21, 2021 that the Google Product Reviews update from December 2021 is now completely rolled out. Alan Kent from Google shared this news on Twitter After asking for an update, he said, “The Google Product Reviews update is fully rolled out.”

The update began 20 days ago on December 1, 2021, just under three weeks, as announced in the original announcement:

Is it fully rolled out? Probably 99%, so I’m not saying 100% just yet:

I’ll check it again, but it involves a complicated provisioning process across multiple data centers, etc. For example, a machine has failed and won’t get the update until it’s started up again – something like that. So most of them roll out pretty quickly, but there is one tail that lasts longer.

So “it’s mostly done” is now true. Is it 100%? This can certainly be more difficult to verify (but the remaining nodes are probably noisy by now).

As you know, Tremors for the past few weeks were intense – but there are signs that it is cooling down a bit now – but that may change in a minute.

For more information about what to do if you are affected by this update, see over here.

I’ll add that the tools used to track Google search results have calmed down a bit today – which is good.

Hope you did this update well!
