How Microsoft Is Waging War Against Revenge Porn

— -- Microsoft is doing its part to strip away revenge porn from the Internet.

The company announced it will remove links to offending content in its Bing search results as well as anything on Xbox Live and its cloud service, OneDrive. In June, Google led the charge allowing victims to remove links to intimate photos posted online without their permission.

Victims can flag offending content on a reporting page which Microsoft will then remove.

Jacqueline Beauchere, Microsoft's chief online safety officer, said "much needs to be done to address the problem."

"As a first step, we want to help put victims back in control of their images and their privacy," Beauchere wrote in a blog post.

The form is currently only available in English, however Beauchere said Microsoft plans to expand to other languages in the coming weeks to allow a global audience to take charge of their privacy.

While Google and Bing can't remove the content from the Internet, the two make up nearly 90 percent of search market share in the United States, giving them the tremendous power to help protect victims.
