Microsoft Turned Bing Into Censorship Machine of China, But Bing Is Pegged at a Mere 2% in Asia, Yandex is Bigger
"In May 2022, a report released by the Citizen Lab of the University of Toronto found that Bing's autosuggestion system censored the names of Chinese Communist Party leaders" -Wikipedia about Microsoft - unlike Google - opportunistically working for Pooh-tin [1, 2]
Microsoft Bing's name origin is not hard to guess (no, nothing to do with "Chandler") and it has a long history of scandals associated with child pornography, just like MElon's "X" or "xAI" or "Grok".
We find it amusing that the "forefathers" of Bing (China) left and what's left of the company in Asia is so laughable. When ChatGPT and then "Bing Chat" launched Microsoft was still #2 in Asia. Now it's almost #4 (fourth from top). That's how statCounter sees it.
Expect many Bing layoffs some time soon (like in past years). █
