Microsoft denied the payment of people to de-index Google
The giant from Redmond denied his involve in delist Google, in favor of Bing. Representatives of Microsoft said that they do not focus on this kind of practice, and they concentrate in improving the user experience and make people to use more Bing than Google.
Yusuf Mehdi, Microsoft’s senior vice president declared:
“What I would say is, our focus is on improving the user experience and driving our differentiation of user intent and decision-making. It’s not to necessarily pay people to de-index our competition. That’s not our focus. So, I wouldn’t think of it that way. It’s more about how do we build a better experience for people. If there’s a way to share in the economics of search in that, then we’re game to do that”.
Mehdi says paying people to delist from Google is “not our focus,” but that doesn’t mean they won’t do it. It doesn’t mean they will, either—matter of fact, it doesn’t mean much of anything. Hopefully we get a clarification soon so we know exactly what “not our focus” means.

You know, I’ve lived for 56 years and in that time I’ve learned to make decisions on my own. I don’t need software to help me make a decision. I’ve never had an information overload from using Google. Typical MS. Bastards. They can advertise their stinking products all they want. My next box will be a linux box so I don’t have to deal with their predatory business practices again.
