Microsoft’s New Search Engine Bing Shows Porn in Motion

Microsoft Bing: Much better than expected

Bing, the new Bang in the world of search engines went live last weekend challenging to unseat (possibly?) search engine giant Google.

We will debate on that later, but right now, bloggers and surfers across the world were quick enough to discover that Bing’s feature will allow anyone to get a glimpse of explicit videos, including pornography.

Microsoft had been generous enough on its convenience features for Bing, including what is called the “autoplay” tool.

This enables users to have a preview of the shady videos without a need to go into the websites. How can that happen? Simple, hover the mouse over the result and on the video to see what is in store.

Well it can become an evil many times and an embarrassment especially to teachers and parents who would want to teach something to children online. Users, especially minors will taste porn on the search engine itself.

However, Bing allows users to set filtering choices to either strict or moderate or off.

There will soon be debate on whether search engines should do more than what they are up to, to prevent children to have access to pornography and illicit sites. Content filter companies too are into reviewing the Bing and found some bugs.

To this, however, Microsoft says that it’s up to the search engine users to add filters.

Yahoo and Google also show up video and image results, but they certainly don’t play the same automatically within the page.
