Bing Goes The iPhone. Still Great For Porn. Since the dawn of Bing, it’s been exceptionally good at one thing: Finding porn. Its new iPhone app, which launched tonight in the App Store, is no different. By default, the app has a Safe Search setting of “Moderate.” Searching for “porn” this way yields several promising results. I love this for two reasons: 1) The app is rated 4+, yet it’s super simple to gain access to hardcore porn in a few clicks. To be fair, Google’s iPhone app also allows you to search for porn. All that said, the Bing app is actually quite nice. Both images below taken on a search for “porn” with safe search turned off.
