Our client keeps no cookie jar, so every Bing read arrived with the adult-content preference undefined -- and in that state Bing answers with wholly unrelated cached result sets. Four identical back-to-back reads of "Fishmans band photo" returned porn, an Indonesian guitar-chord page, porn again, and a printable 2026 calendar, each internally coherent with honest titles and page urls. Measured 27/27 reads with zero relevant cards without the flag and 27/27 correct with it, across three artists, three waves and three repeats. Only strict works; moderate and off behave exactly like sending nothing. Strict costs no relevance (Partiboi69 scores 34/35) and it also keeps explicit imagery out of the candidate pool, which until now only the identity gate was stopping. This failure was misdiagnosed twice -- first as a poisoned IP, then as Bing rate limiting -- because with no cookie our requests are byte-identical every time, so all the variability lived in Bing's cache. That is why it appeared to break and heal on its own with no code change. Camping in Alaska, Fishmans and Partiboi69 now resolve real heroes again.
