    As Bing the search engine is owned by the highly-profitable Microsoft, a bankruptcy is unlikely.

    However, Bing Energy filed for bankruptcy. Not the same company.

    That sounds like two completely different companies. If it was the search engine you would be very sure of it believe me

    Yes, Its true that Bing files for bankruptcy and not only that because they also suing some of its ex inventors for the legal issue engagement on top of fuel cell technology.

    The Bing search engine isn't bankrupt. It is run by Microsoft so unless Microsoft files for bankruptcy (unlikely in itself) Bing going bust is extremely unlikely. More, it could be discontinued but not bankrupt but I think MS will keep pushing Bing for a while to come.

    Bing Energy is the company that filed for bankruptcy -- separate companies entirely.

    And, Bing Energy is just a unpopular company dealing with energy-efficient appliances.

    The justice department will never let this happen. There's not enough search engines for them to warrant consolidation at this time. Any Merger/Buyout will be blocked.

    unlikely...
    a corrupt politician would never turn down stock options...

    If you think about it, google is the super power of the internet now...
    have you seen at any point the govt attempting to get involved?
    It would be a blood bath between google, and the government.
