BEIJING (Reuters) – Microsoft Corp’s internet search engine Bing said it has been required by a “relevant government agency” to suspend its “auto suggest” function in China for 30 days.
“Bing is a global search platform and remains committed to respect the rule of law and users’ right to access information,” Bing said on its Chinese search site on Friday.
