My two favorite takeaways from this blog post are:

1) You can increase your site's rankings by installing the Bing Toolbar amongst a group of people and have said group search google for your target keyword and click through on your result.

2) Google is able and willing to manually screw around with search results in a seemingly easy manner.

As to the issue of Bing slurping up google's data for their own purposes: Scraping the web is a double edged sword. They aren't doing anything illegal. If anything, this whole ordeal has made both Search Engines look like a bunch of teenagers fighting over a who stole who's boyfriend.
