"Unfortunately, Bing doesn't offer hard-core settings to keep resourceful children from unlocking the SafeSearch feature."

Pathetic quote. Point me to the search engine that DOES do this? How is it unfortunate if we never had it to begin with. Unless there is some hyper tucked away engine I haven't heard of?

When I think "children" I am thinking under 13 as far as whom I would ABSOLUTELY not want to see porn. I know most of my friends had already seen porn once the teen years started. Not saying it was good/bad. I am just saying it is what it is. I would strongly prefer the young children not have any access to porn ... but that by and large will be up to me THE PARENT(s) ... to be a PARENT. So .. as a parent be AWARE and INVOLVED with your children and they will likely prosper regardless of porn or no porn. I am a PARENT and I am AWARE and INVOLVED with my children's lives daily. So I have a good idea what I am talking about.

My son is 13 and to be honest if Playboy comes up i would be OK with it... Its the hardcore which i think is an issue for kids (13 and below). I don't want him to get the wrong ideas.

you can die for your coutry @ 18 but can't drink till 21.... That is pretty F'd. In Canada drinking is 18... but most people start grade 8-9-10

Nice. Now, all you'd have to do at home to keep the kiddies out, is Set OpenDNS up, and block the explicit.bing.com domain. Pretty easy stuff...

I'm using Bing.com only for the porn preview feature, if they start filtering porn then I will not be interested anymore in Bing.com.

kids have been sitting next to boinking parents in teepees for 10k years, stop trying to pretend that life's most natural act is going to damage them.

childen won't be affected by playboy magazine, etc...(and girl-on-girl porn) but they will be affected by 'facials' (i.e ahhhh drop'n loads...) and anything thing degrading, and humiliating)
but then again that stuff is only available on the file sharing sites...
