This doesn't block you from visiting MSN, but it does stop their articles from appearing in search. The reason is that MSN just re-hosts articles from other sites rather than provide anything of value. MSN posts often outrank their original source because Microsoft is pushing it hard on Windows/Bing/Edge. For example: https://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/news/jodie-foster-heckled-as-she-wins-fifth-golden-globe/ar-AA1x1F2y https://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/news/jodie-foster-heckled-a... is just a re-hosted version https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/jodie-foster-golden-globes-2025-winners-b2674295.html https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/jod... My hope in hiding MSN is to allow the original sources to rise back up to the top.
