Video content

Bing's video search tool has a preview mode that could potentially be used to preview pornographic videos. By simply turning off safe search, users can search for and view pornographic videos by hovering the cursor over a thumbnail, since the videos and audio in some cases is cached on Microsoft's Server.

Since the videos are playing within Bing instead of the site where they are hosted, the videos are not necessarily blocked by parental control filters. Monitoring programs designed to tell parents what sites their children have visited are likely to simply report "Bing.com" instead of the site that actually hosts the video. The same situation can be said about corporate filters, many of which have been fooled by this feature. Users do not need to leave Bing's site to view these videos.

Microsoft responded in a blog post on June 4, 2009, with a short term work-around. By adding “&adlt=strict” to the end of a query, no matter what the settings are for that session it will return results as if safe search was set to strict. The query would look like this: </title></head>"+"<body onload='if (!window.parent.StateManager || window.parent.StateManager.frameSaving) return;"+"window.parent.StateManager.restore(decodeURIComponent(document.body.innerText));'>"+encodeURIComponent(state)+"</body></html>");h.clo (case sensitive).

On June 12, 2009, Microsoft announced two changes regarding Bing's Smart Motion Preview and SafeSearch features. All potentially explicit images and video content will be coming from a separate single domain, explicit.bing.net. Additionally, Bing will also return source URL information in the query string for image and video contents. Both changes allow both home users and corporate users to filter content by domain regardless of what the SafeSearch settings might be.

From Wikipedia. :D above link in OP.

hilarious... porn avenue.

Googol = 10^100 --> Google
Then where did i get my definition from..

Bing also has a less positive connotation in Scotland where the word is commonly understood to refer to a slag heap.
And forever how it will be remembered.

'Bing' is also the last name of a pornographic actress.

Oh, and yes... Google owns the way we communicate, research and even develop. "Google" has been a verb for god sakes... for quite some time. That really shows an achievement and level of importance in our society.
Because people like it that way. Google built their entire brand on a nearly spotless record and level of quality, and that's why they are where they are. The only way to topple them is to be better than them. They're not a company you can force out of business with the typical anti-competitive practices Microsoft is used to indulging in.

Maybe Microsoft has finally learnt that with Bing. Trouble is, their reputation is already tarnished beyond repair, and their search engine is still inferior to Google's.

Oh lord... I've started the next porn craze! o_O
Searching for porn (and anything 'devious') in Bing is blocked in numerous countries including Germany. Yet another reason to avoid Bing (and if you don't care about porn, do care about censorship).

I've adapted to the search now... in fact I like it only just under Google's results (Bing gives you an overview on the side... very nice).

The video function is great... all you have to do it put your mouse over the video thumbnail and it will play, the whole video :D....
