Google: Bing Copying Our Search Results

Search engine giant Google is claiming this afternoon that, despite Microsoft's claims that it does not copy its results, Bing is using results directly from Google. The search scandal erupted Tuesday morning after Google detailed a long and involved "sting" which planted fake search results in its search engine, which it then detected in Bing. Google said it believed that Bing is either using data from internet Explorer 8, or other means to bolster Bing results.
