Not only search: titles and description of Youtube videos are being translated. Colab UI is now in Spanish (using technical terms that make no sense).

Some people may want translation, mostly people that only speak a single language. But for most bilingual people, being forced a translation (a lower quality one), is a worse experience. I'm surprised that no one at Google has pushed back this anti-user behavior. It is like no one at Google knows more than one language.

The worst part is when traveling. Google ignores the browser settings, so it throws me Japanese or German website, even if my browser settings clearly says English then Spanish.

They are trying so hard to be smart that the Chrome locale is determined from your GPS location, which creates obvious problems. I tried to change it once using the Sensors in dev tools in order to get rid of the AM/PM in time input fields, to no avail. You do not simply get the 24h time format.

FWIW, I once complained about this and they told me it's a "hard problem".
