When someone searched for "Google," Microsoft Bing allegedly changed its search results page to seem like Googles homepage. The revised page reportedly has Googlelike design elements, such as a centred search bar, text underneath it, and a doodle above it. Additionally, the interface partially hid Bings logo unless users manually scrolled. Parisa Tabriz, vice president of Google Chrome, criticised this action, calling it a "new low."

Microsoft has previously come under fire for similar practices, such as using popups on its Edge browser to deter people from downloading Chrome. Read More..
