Bending the knee: Over the Google barrel

Google Calendar users recently noticed that certain cultural observances, including Black History Month and Pride Month, are no longer displayed on the platform.

The company previously included these events in prior years, but for 2025, they have been removed without public announcement.

The change, which The Verge first reported, has sparked online discussion, with users questioning why these events were excluded.

A Google spokesperson confirmed the update, The Verge reported, stating that the company is now only showing public holidays and national observances instead of manually maintaining a broader list of cultural moments.
