If you're trying to search the web for pirated copies of Xboxgames, Microsoft's Bing is apparently the way to go. This week, Google updated its transparency reports to show which copyright owners most frequently ask Google toremove links to infringing content. Microsoft is by far the mostactive rights holder, with more than 2.5 million takedown requests since July 2011, the new data shows. A company called Marketly,which issues takedown requests on Microsoft's behalf, wasalso the top reporting organization last month. But as TechDirt's Mike Masnick points out , Microsoft isn't always so aggressive when it comes topolicing its own Bing search engine. By looking at recent takedownrequests that Marketly sent to Google, Masnick found that Bingstill harbors some links to pirated Xbox 360 games, even afterthey've vanished from Google: Now, it seems pretty reasonable to assume that if Marketly issending a takedown to Google to get such a link taken out of itssearch engine, on behalf of Microsoft, that it quite likely isissuing the same kind of takedown to Microsoft's Bing (hell,you'd perhaps think that Microsoft could just pull the linkwithout a takedown). And yet… the site, which Microsoftsupposedly wants to disappear, is gone from Google, but foundeasily on Bing. In fairness, Microsoft does police itself for pirated content. WhenI searched for piracy terms such as "Windows 7torrent," I found that Bing and Google had both removed thesame search results. I also found some cases where Bing was moremilitant than Google about piracy links, such as with this resulton Bing and Google. The issue appears to be with some recent takedown requests inwhich Bing isn't moving as quickly as Google. That may beunderstandable, given that Google is a more popular search enginethan Bing, but it doesn't look great for Microsoft. In any case, these takedowns aren't a foolproof way of hidingpiracy. That "Windows 7 torrent" search I mentionedbefore? It still turns up plenty of results on both search engines.
