Microsoft is using a deceptive tactic to lure users to its Bing search engine. Searching for 'Google' on Bing without signing in presents a page mimicking Google's interface, complete with a search bar, Google Doodle-like image, and text mimicking Google's layout. This trick aims to make Bing appear as Google for this specific query, potentially influencing new PC users who search for Google in Microsoft Edge.
Microsoft is pulling yet another trick to get people to use its Bing search engine . If you use Bing right now without signing into a Microsoft account and search for Google , you’ll get a page that looks an awful lot like... Google . It’s a clear attempt from Microsoft to make Bing look like Google for this specific search query, and other searches just list the usual Bing search results without this special interface.
While Bing still surfaces search results for Google underneath this spoofed Google UI, a lot of people will see this interface when they configure a new PC and search for Google in the address bar of Microsoft Edge. As 9to5Google points out, it’s a sneaky move from Microsoft to try and keep people using Bing instead of switching to Google. Microsoft has a habit of this kind of behavior, too.
