Is Microsoft Screening Its Search Results?

In today's world where there are thousands of websites containing information on a certain topic, it is almost a certainty that there would be several that would have the same degree of relevancy to a word being searched.

Say, if I searched for the word WXYZ and there were ten results with the same 90% relevancy, and for some reason two of those slipped out of the list, would I notice? No. Would I still get what I was searching for? Yes, because there were still eight others with the same degree of relevancy. And most likely, I would not need all eight of them anyway - half would probably serve my purpose. So, who would notice if any subtle screening were going on?
