Siri is no longer defaulting to Bing as its search engine when she doesn't know the answer. Not only that, but Google will now be the default browser on your iPhone's search bar as well. Apple claims the main goal of this is consistency, aiming to give users a consistent web search experience across the board as Safari on Mac and IOS were already using Google as default.
