I also got such.
I'm guessing your track record of searches has flagged you as someone they
might want to hire.

Is the phrase a secret?


> Anyone know what it's about? 

My guess is that either:

1) You have accidentally discovered a back door through Google's 
firewalls and security, and now have total control over their entire 
network of tens of thousands of computers around the world; or 

2) it's an Easter egg and coding challenge.


My money is on number 1.

Google weirdness

2018-07-12 Thread Travis McGee
I somehow managed to trigger the dialog below by typing in a certain 
Python phrase to Google. Anyone know what it's about? It shows up in 
what appears to be terminal screen.


Viz:

Google has a code challenge ready for you.
Been here before?

This invitation will expire if you close this page.

Success! You've managed to infiltrate Commander Lambda's evil 
organization, and finally earned yourself an entry-level position as a 
Minion on her space station.


From here, you just might be able to subvert her plans to use the 
LAMBCHOP doomsday device to destroy Bunny Planet. Problem is, Minions 
are the lowest of the low in the Lambda hierarchy. Better buck up and 
get working, or you'll never make it to the top...


For a list of commands type help. To get started with your first 
challenge type request.
