Google will make your movie and TV reviews public under a new profile page.

Starting June 24, Google will display all movie, TV show, book, album and game reviews under profile pages, according to an email sent to users last month. These profiles are also searchable via Google Search, which can lead to users being profiled based on their likes and dislikes. The company first launched the feature to publish movie reviews for Indian users in 2017. Last year, TechCrunch announced that it was making review profiles public and searchable in some regions, starting with the US and India. Now they publish all profiles worldwide. Basically, you can click on any user's profile and see all the comments they've written. Google told TechCrunch that the company is offering a switch for people to make their profiles private. As SEO consultant Gagan Ghotra and TechCrunch observed, Switch cannot be used only earlier this week.

“Personal data makes people easier to watch and manage things like movies and TV programs in one place and comment to help others. These reviews were already public, and we're giving people the option to manage their profile as private or delete it entirely, as well as the ability to privately edit or delete their reviews," a Google spokesperson told TechCrunch in a statement.

Google also makes all profiles public by default. This means that if you don't know about the profile page with your reviews, or if you haven't been paying attention to Google emails (which may have ended up in your Gmail spam or updates folder), your profile will be visible to everyone. .The company told TechCrunch that it sent users notifications about hidden profile management through the Google Profile interface. In addition, it notifies users of new Google profiles through a pop-up window for existing comments. However, if users are not aware of the new profile, they are unlikely to visit the page. There's a good chance you'll keep coming back and reading your review of the show or movie. Google needs to do a better job of notifying users of a brand new page associated with their account.
