Microsoft Edge has many convenient features to improve your browsing experience. However, some of those features raise privacy concerns. One, for example, sends images you view directly to Microsoft.
I agree, I do love that edge is leagues better than IE (which isn't saying much, but there has to be some Kudos to actually making a web browser). But I think that many people who are focused on privacy do not use chromium based browsers with heavy telemetry like Chrome/Edge.
Firefox or even its privacy focused variants are the way to go if a user wants total control over their privacy. That and probably using adguard dns for some extra help. Although that's trusting a different company to handle your traffic.
I can't say I'm surprised, just disappointed. The fact that I need to disable it in the first place shows I shouldn't be using Edge in the first place.
