Microsoft Edge Pushes an "All in One Browser" Message on Chrome’s Download Page (windowsreport.com)

Microsoft is trying a new way to stop users from downloading Google Chrome. If you open the Chrome download page in Microsoft Edge, you may see a new banner at the top. This version looks different from the usual prompts that ask users to stay with Edge.

I'm curious, what if I download Firefox from Edge? 🤔

They can do a lot of that now with Recall even if you use Chrome.

They also want you to use their browser because they want to direct you to bing/copilot and get ad revenue from all of your clicks.
