Don't believe the hype (a shameless lying blitz)
Summary: The 'father' of Bing left Microsoft, many Bing employees were laid off earlier this year, and the remaining ones relocated out of their office in Bellevue; the media is meanwhile hyping up the "Bing" brand (we saw new examples this morning) and pretending that Google is doomed; the data does not support this phony narrative (it's more or less the same in other regions around the world; overall, worldwide, Bing market share is measured at about 2.5%)
