Additionally, users were often confused about the keywords listed in content keywords. And so, the time has come to retire the Content Keywords feature in Search Console.
Where they can continue to confuse in Google Analytics.

What was your most surprising, or favorite, keyword shown?
This is a new security question, so be careful what you post publicly. ;)

Haha. I gave up on Content Keywords after I added {ebook of multi-volume non-English text}, leading WMT/GSC to go entirely haywire in its suppositions of what my site was about. That came after a few years of mentally filtering out several forms of “and” in {language Google doesn't know, which fortunately lacks definite articles or it would have been even goofier}.

Never did figure out why it thought “it’s” (in English) was a Keyword, either.

Also bye-bye from GSC is the Feature Phone error category.

As a user, I found it helpful. Now it's gone, i'm just feeling that the console has become slightly less useful.
