Microsoft blames error for censorship outside China

"Due to an error in our system, we triggered an incorrect results
removal notification for some searches noted in the report but the
results themselves are and were unaltered outside of China."

you're Darth Vader that is) to hear that Bing censorship is apparently
working full steam inside China as per the orders of Microsoft's
Chinese government masters.
