[QUOTE="Marko :), post: 869144, member: 39702"] I know this is a Microsoft Edge thread, but I have to say that I found an other reason why not trust Microsoft. Apparently, Microsoft Outlook app for Android keeps connecting to Facebook to share data. Of course, there isn't a way to stop it, but you can turn off [I]Off-Facebook activity[/I] in the privacy settings of your Facebook account. Keep in mind, even after turning off [I]Off-Facebook Activity[/I], the app will still send the data and regularly connect to Facebook, and you cannot do anything about it. Think you can block it from connecting? You can, but your battery life will be worse because the app keeps connecting every few seconds until it reaches Facebook.
