    News Reports from leading dailies suggest that Microsoft Bing allows easy access to porn. What amount of truth is in these reports ?

    honestly if someone, or in this case a "child" is searching for porn chances are they know what they want to find...I remember being a young teenager searching for pornographic material. Since the web didn't go with the .xxx extension as mandatory for all porn (what is porn? can of worms haha) you can't really denounce a SE for not filtering its content, especially as ambiguous as porn. Bing has other more important problems webmasters should care about :)

    Uh, yeah. Bing searches the internet, which is littered with porn. Can you not access porn on Google or Yahoo?

    I do not see any reason why bing should be singularly and specifically targeted for this offense. I find all SE's similar in their actions! :eek:
