I doubt Bing will be an option in people’s mind because of Google’s first-mover advantage marketing. Google is now a verb and you barely hear people say “Bing it” instead of “google it.”

I mean I use neither and the best part, I just say… “search it”. Because most of the people I know use DuckDuckGo and startpage.

Also google with their CAPTCHA bullshit. Waste my time, after 2 or 3 , I get a limitless captcha that turns into hell. So I just deal with a search engine that doesn’t recycle me every times

But again… I am 0000000.1% lol

Google results also are mainstream SEO and ads. I’d rather look for legit websites and sources for info that didn’t swing their way into the top spot by paying the ad company money.

Also with their tracking system that holds your hands across the internet …

A pinch of privacy is 1,000 times better than just giving it up.

I don't know why I found the pointless amount of zeroes so funny.

AltaVista had the first-mover advantage.

Yahoo! had the second-mover advantage.
