The community is not so badly aware of Bing's weaknesses as a search engine. We have seen many incidents highlighting these weaknesses in the past. Such a thing happened to Gabriel Landau recently and he went on Twitter and tweeted about the problem
According to Landau, a search attempt to download Google Chrome using edge resulted in being directed to a malicious search result. The result seems to have pushed malware under the pretense of chrome.
The problem is easy enough to reproduce, with the deceptive site appearing as an ad under "google.com" instead of "https://www.google.com". This then leads you to an imitation chrome download site and invites you to download software that we are pretty sure is a kind of malicious program.
By testing the same problem on Chrome, the site was reported as misleading. Edge, associated with Bing, had no clue about it. It just shows that Microsoft has almost lost its mind regarding Edge.
The worst thing is that the problem may not even be new. We have seen the same thing happen before. Nearly six months ago, an ad with almost the same delivery method was reported and reported to Microsoft, or deleted. However, this does not seem to have prompted Bing to reconsider anything in its advertising strategy, as we are already facing a similar problem.
Bing has always been considered as an uninteresting engine in the past. Even with Microsoft pushing for its spread with the decision of the mobile version of Windows 10, it has not seen a lot of consumer base. I think Microsoft really needs to start defining its Bing management practices.
