If you don't like Bing, you can always write your own shit search engine that nobody uses, you know.
Google gives a shit-ton of tank man images.

They've already changed it. I just got lots of references to Tank Man, and the first result was a story about how it tuned up nothing on Bing.

Google, Yahoo!, Bing, DuckDuckGo ... all returned results about “tank man” and Tien An Men incident just fine, though I only tried regular web search, not image search specifically.
Also tried China-based search engines BaiDu and SoHu, both returned no result on the topic (as expected).

Microsoft wrote it was due to “accidental human error”.
Define accidental human error. LOL

I saw that, but this wasn’t a random typo or bug. In the best case, it was a single employee who wanted a few minutes of fame. It could also be that they accidentally activated a feature that was supposed to work only in some countries.

Knowing how big software shops typically deploy their software across multiple cloud installations across the globe, I deem this to be the most likely explanation.
