theregister.com/2024/01/30/microsoft_edge_tabs/
Quick Glance: Microsoft Edge Imports Chrome Data Without Permission
- Microsoft's Edge browser seems to be actively importing open Chrome tabs and other data from Google's browser without user permission, even when the 'feature' is disabled.
- Buried within Edge's browser settings on Windows machines is code that goes well beyond a one-time import of favorites and stored passwords, and has been present in some form since at least mid-2022.
- It gives Edge the ability to import practically all the browser data from Chrome each time Redmond's browser is launched.
- This presents a classic Microsoft problem: it's currently happening without full permission and leads to even less privacy for the users.
