This is a very low-information announcement here but if this is taken to the extreme, it means that DuckDuckGo, Qwant, and many other so-called “alternative” search engines are going to either have to look for a new provider of results, or die.

    Shiiit, I really don’t want to go back to Google and all their sponsored/AI/tracking bullshit. Any other privacy-focused search engines out there that don’t rely on this?

      You think Microsoft gives you privacy?

      They make billions on targeted ad revenue.

        No, I use duckduckgo which is powered by Bing’s API. Hence why I said other privacy-focused search engine.
