Google "glitch" turns your search request into a page showing your text messages
You can always revoke the SMS permission on the Google app
Most Android devices running the latest version of the Google app are susceptible to the glitch. Those totin' an iOS device will receive the search results for the website, which is exactly what should happen to Android users as well.
Besides "the1975..com," Reddit users found another search term that resulted in users seeing their text messages. Searching for "zela viagens" will trigger the same response.
So far, Google has not issued a statement regarding the glitch.
The results of the glitch, at right, are similar to what Google Assistant sends you when you ask it to "show me my text messages
