Microsoft's bing.com censors 'sex' for Indians!
Source - Rediff
Bing.com, Microsoft's new search engine and much ballyhooed 'answer to Google', seems to have a neurotic attitude towards pornography.
While users in the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia can search for, comb over and ultimately view sexually explicit material within the search page itself, Bing.com is automatically set-up to censor searches from India and certain other countries.

Re: Microsoft's bing.com censors 'sex' for Indians!
MS is doing too much rebranding instead of improving products. Microsoft well knows how to grab user attention as it is doing with Crappy Bing. Some months Back it was giving talktime to mobile users in India: http://mrintech.com/oppurtunity-to-w...th-live-search
I was expecting that Bing will be redefined very well but it's exact replica of Live Search. Seriously too much Money and time wastage.

Re: Microsoft's bing.com censors 'sex' for Indians!
Yes, Microsoft should work more on improving search engine rather trying to get attension by changing domain name and look.
I don't see bing with any major improvement over live.com Infact bing.com give zero search result for whost.in to my site !!

Re: Microsoft's bing.com censors 'sex' for Indians!
After seeing dominance everywhere I am in no mood to try this new Microsft baby. BTW Google has taken another step with "Google Wave". So what next Microsoft -> "Bingo"  .

Re: Microsoft's bing.com censors 'sex' for Indians!
A$$hole Bing.... BTW why do people will even use Bing where there are more advanced (not talking of google) and conceptual search engines available... ? At the moment I can only see the use of Bing is to get "pictured" weather update in IE, but considering the fact... it's worthless....
