Remove new Knowlage graph overlay
-
Hi Moz,
Recently Google started showed new snippets in searches as seen in the attached below (1) but the problem I'm finding is I'm sure its showing me different results to "normal" searches especially when compared to a logged out or alternative account (2). Now I've got a solution to this but wanted to know if anyone else had solutions to removing this or at least gaining a more normal result with it on.
Seems to almost personalize the search results which isn't ideal so if anyone knows how to get this to stop I would love to hear it You can also see some more info here - https://www.seroundtable.com/google-pop-up-information-box-18007.html
thanks helping me with the mild irritant

Google personalises search results to you using many metrics and signals, such as your search history, logged in email address' affiliation with a site and location.
If you want fresh search results that ignores these factors, for purposes such as checking your rankings in another city, you can use the Ad Preview & Diagnostics tool in adwords: http://adwords.google.com/d/AdPreview/?__u=1000000000&__c=1000000000

Thanks!
I've got most of my stuff to be depersonalized which was fine but recently this new overlay is messing with me and I can still get access to new none personalized results but I just wanted to know if anyone had luck removing the overlay and an quick fix!

I've seen it disappear when using a Google from a different country, google.com.mx or google.ca for example... Neither of these make the searches more generic however.
