I don't want to use edge, but I do have to admit between Chrome and Edge, Edge has become the less evil. It respects the search and ad tracking opt out settings on your account, and doesn't disable or cripple ad blockers. The "strict" account wide setting on Edge is so strict that sites will pop up asking you disable ad blockers even if you don't have one.

This VS the current state of Chrome which undermines ad blocking, and forces you to opt out of ad tracking on every install of Chrome across all devices... Oh.. But they're going to enable ip masquing now.. Because they don't need your ip with all the identifiers they are injecting into your browser.

I hate MS... But the don't be evil company has done a 180 in a rapid fashion over the last couple of years and sadly.. MS is now the lesser of two evils.
