Edge is literally Chrome with Microsoft slapped on top of it.

No. They're working on a big privacy dashboard which blocks tracking cookies as well as other stuff: https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/whats-next

Still not buying it. I don't trust Microsoft at all with privacy especially with what they did to Windows 10.

Telemetry & spying is everywhere with everything that they build now even in their calculator[0][1].

I would stick to Ungoogled/Chromium, Safari or Firefox thanks.

Don't worry, it's all for your benefit. How else would they know what divisors to optimize first for?
