Considering Chrome’s first beta launch, it only began with the Microsoft Windows version. The software runs on any operating system and on most devices. Is it a top priority? One can only hope Microsoft will be more vigilant going forward since this is a recurring problem with Bing.Google Chrome is a freeware web browser developed by Google. We encourage users to continue to report this type of content at bit.ly/2PZWZ1u so we can take appropriate action."
