Google claims that Bing is copying search results. Supposedly, Bing doesn't deny the charge. See below.

Google has run a sting operation that it says proves Bing has been watching what people search for on Google, the sites they select from Google?s results, then uses that information to improve Bing?s own search listings. Bing doesn?t deny this.
As a result of the apparent monitoring, Bing?s relevancy is potentially improving (or getting worse) on the back of Google?s own work. Google likens it to the digital equivalent of Bing leaning over during an exam and copying off of Google?s test.
?I?ve spent my career in pursuit of a good search engine,? says Amit Singhal, a Google Fellow who oversees the search engine?s ranking algorithm. ?I?ve got no problem with a competitor developing an innovative algorithm. But copying is not innovation, in my book.?
Bing doesn?t deny Google?s claim.
