I was using Bing to create a list of countries to visit. Since I have been to the majority of the African nation on that list, I asked it to remove the african countries...

It simply replied that it can't do that due to how unethical it is to descriminate against people and yada yada yada. I explained my resoning, it apologized, and came back with the same exact list.

I asked it to check the list as it didn't remove the african countries, and the bot simply decided to end the conversation. No matter how many times I tried it would always experience a hiccup because of some ethical process in the bg messing up its answers.

It's really frustrating, I dunno if you guys feel the same. I really feel the bots became waaaay too tip-toey

I asked for information on a turtle race where people cheated with mechanic cars and it also stopped talking to me, exactly using the same "excuse". You want to err on the side of caution, but it's just ridiculous.

It's because it has a dumb filter before it. You said race, so that triggers it. Someone really lazy didn't bother with context detection or even with a regex.
