Bing throws 'pirates' off its search engine

Bing has removed "several hundred thousand" search results from its index, believing them to be links to unlicenced content.

A cursory search for, say, "Torrent Monsters University" proves this has had little more effect than removing a few pine needles would diminish a forest.

Bing's user base is out visiting his grandson this weekend, and is unavailable for comment.
