I'm guessing it is a "hand tuned" search result tweak because just appending "china" returns a few images:

https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=tank%20man%20china

(For those who don't see results, this is my screen grab of the above at 18:12 UTC : https://imgur.com/a/3tzPV49)

Also, "Tiananmen Square massacre" still returns some image results:

https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Tiananmen+Square+massac...

Therefore, the tweak for "tank man" doesn't seem to make any sense since all the other phrases to get to the same sensitive topic are not suppressed.

(I did some searching.) This is from a report here:

https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/microsoft-bing-raises-c...

Of course, the search result is an MSN link.

"actively working to resolve this." Isn't it just remove the filter and that's it?

I bet the filter was supposed to be applied only to China IPs but was accidentally applied over all IPs. So whatever work is required to fix that and roll it out
