If they are actually interested in the results, I think this is way better than the straight up nag screen they used to have.

The pop-ups are nearly two years old, and the injected ads are from earlier this year.

I cannot believe how many stories we’ve written about the shit Microsoft has pulled to steer you away from Chrome.

Even today, the company still won’t always respect your choice of default browser, though that may finally be changing in the EU.

Sadly the poll doesn’t include an “I’m boycotting Edge because you don’t respect me as a user” option.

The original article contains 133 words, the summary contains 108 words. Saved 19%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

That kid with abandonment issues that tries to bribe classmates to stay a little while longer by promising them candy, but instead of that kid it's Microsoft, and instead of candy it's gravel.

The answer, as the saying goes, is in the body of the question.

I love Edge so I never get this pop up.
