June 10, 2025. Trends in online searches / last 24 hours

The last 24 hours have generated searches that focused on politics, but also on current events, sports, public figures and technology news.

In the political area, users' interest focused on the formation of the future government and Nicușor Dan. Among the most searched for information were the name of the possible prime minister and the measures proposed in the government program, including a possible tax on banking transactions.

Externally, information was sought on Italy's referendum on changing citizenship rules and improving workers' rights, which was declared invalid due to low voter turnout. Interest focused on the proposal to reduce the period required to obtain citizenship from ten to five years, but also on the political context that influenced turnout, especially as the government led by Giorgia Meloni did not support the initiative.

In the sphere of current events, a major direction of search was represented by the effects of the strong storm that hit Bucharest and Ilfov. Romanians wanted to find out details about the damage caused, the authorities' interventions and the safety measures transmitted through the Ro-Alert system. The high number of 112 calls and fire brigade interventions fueled the need for accurate information, especially for people living in areas directly affected by the weather.

Romanian users were also looking for information related to the start of the written tests of the Baccalaureat exam, with a focus on the Romanian language and literature test. Interest was piqued not only by the timing of the exams, but also by a significant change in the procedure: for the first time, students will be able to view the assessed papers before deciding whether or not to lodge an appeal. This novelty has attracted searches among students, parents and teachers, given the implications for the transparency of the assessment process.

Another searched topic was related to a technical glitch in Wizz Air's notification system. Several Romanians received erroneous e-mails informing them that their flights were delayed, although in reality there was no such change.

Sports also captured the public's attention, particularly the 2026 World Cup qualifying matches. Romanians watched with interest two major clashes: Italy v Moldova, which ended 2-0, marking the Italian national team's last match under Luciano Spalletti, and the duel between Belgium and Wales, a spectacular 4-3 draw that was described as dramatic.

In the public figures category, Mel Gibson's name has been trending, with users searching for information about his presence in Italy and the preparation of a new movie.

In addition, information about Mihaela Borcea's marriage to her partner of ten years, Sorin Rap, was widely searched. The event drew attention for its mundane nature, with details of the dresses worn by the bride and the guest list being among the elements that fueled public interest.

On the technology front, Romanians were curious about the launch of Apple's new iOS 26 operating system. The searches focused on the novelties brought by this version, especially the new interface. Audiences interested in Apple products also tracked when beta versions would be available to developers, as well as estimates for the official launch with the new iPhone models.
