Why just in the EU?! I know.. because of strict regulations and fear of billions in fines.

But.. what if Microsoft plays fair and just ditches this aggressive behavior and shows some respect to its users who have already paid for their Windows license and let them use whatever software they want.

I use Edge as my default browser in Windows and just a few days ago wanted to test something related to web in Chrome. I have chrome installed but didn’t open it in months now.. but, guess what? The moment I clicked the chrome icon, a notification popped up saying something like: “Use edge, a fast, secure.. a bla bla bla browser..”. I was literally shocked by how far can MS go to promote its own products even if you always use them as your main tools.
