๐ฌ The series of the year was “Jeffrey Dahmer”, which also got 9th place in general searchesย
๐ง How are the annual reviews created?
The search queries are determined by evaluating billions of search queries. No interests of individual users can be identified, but they are based on anonymised and aggregated data. These record how often certain terms were searched for. The search terms that have risen the most are the “trending searches”.ย
