Stamp Google Duplicate

Google has come through and has now stopped deduplicating the featured snippets that show up on the right side. That is until Google moves the right side featured snippets to the top left position. Google said they would do this temporarily until Google does move those featured snippets.

This went live super early this morning, maybe around 2am ET. Heba Said posted around 2am about this:

Again, this should be how things are until Google moves the right side snippets to the left position.
