Ok.  Somehow I've not seen or notice any of that on Bing search pages, at all.  Hence, it being one big reason (of many) why I, personally, use & prefer Bing.  I wish Bing.com home page was the NTP, rather than just only using basic Bing search bar; would, then, also, have Bing Visual Search which, is fantastic! 

When we Bing Insiders meet monthly we often remark on the lack of ads at the top of search pages before actual results, that people don't like or want, with Bing compared to other search engine pages.  And how that is another thing making Bing attractive & appealing.

There are several things about Bing that make me, at least, quite happy that it is the 'primary' (for lack of a better word) search engine in Edge.

Here's an example; "Look, Ma, no ads".


Cheers,

There you have it, first result, top result, the correct one, straight to the official Microsoft website.

 

if a user is not tech savvy and can't or don't pay attention to the URL of the search results in Bing, then they will most likely get infected, have unwanted software installed on their PC and whatnot.
