Someone caught Microsoft Bing hijacking searches for competing AI services to add a Copilot widget
Getting a little needy, Microsoft.
Microsoft hasn't been on its best behavior with its search engine, Bing. Recently, the company has attempted some pretty sneaky tricks to get people to use its services over its competitors. Its main method of attack is to identify when you search for a rival product, then slip in something that promotes Microsoft's products instead. We had hoped that the company would stop this practice, but if a recent report were to be believed, the Redmond giant has returned to its old tricks by encouraging people to use Copilot.
