    Oh yeah, Edge has a coupon and reward service. They can save you money by scraping your web browsing habits and potential products then push you towards chosen vendors and their own services. Just like every other big tech company!

      Personally, I use Firefox.

      But frankly, the entire point of the chromium browser engine is to harvest to whatever company is shipping it.

      To play devil advocate: If you have to use Chromium, might as well do it on one that gives you a pittance back?

      Wow, didn’t know that… Now I understand how those coupon services work.

      Very shady considering it knows what you’re trying to buy and can offer you appropriate coupons.
