Microsoft blames error for censorship outside China

http://j.mp/1m5dtUD  (Business Insider)

   "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."

Whatever that explanation means ... And it's heartwarming (well, if
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.
