    Did this Microsoft tactic ever work in their favour? Forcing people to use things they don’t like? Internet Explorer, Edge, Bing Search, AI and so on. I think it’s not a long-term success story. Also, why focus on tool usage instead of actual goals.

      Bing is used more than people think. It’s also used by sites like DuckDuckGo, Qwant, Swisscows, etc.

      As for why: They want them to train their own replacement. Also as a way to justify all the money they spent.
