[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 975928, member: 32260"] I do not think so. Edge sends billions of signals every day to Microsoft. This Big data can be hardly usable for spying on consumers. It is used to enhance the customers' security and personalize the browsing. It could be used for spying if Microsoft had external information that someone is dangerous or very interesting for some particular reason. So, if the FBI or CIA could force Microsoft to filter the Big data for specific criminal activity, then your privacy could be exposed. So the terrorists, American dissidents, etc. would like to avoid Edge + SmartScreen. Anyway, much more dangerous for consumers can be DNS providers, Google search, social media, etc. No. I can use it without any problem with H_C, ConfigureDefender, and FirewallHardening all set to MAX settings. Edge was not based on Chromium for a few first years. In the year 2020, the old Edge was replaced by the Chromium version. This is a very strong setup. [/QUOTE]
