    Wow such great innovative features. Rather than trying to improve Windows inefficient interface, or actually creating a decent browser that isn’t riddled with adds, you can instead waste time and manpower to devise new ways to piss of your users.

        32.3% of web users are Windows. Large companies should be punished for acting in an uncompetitive way to maintain their profits. Competition creates the tendency of the rate of profit to fall, which accelerates us towards the end of capitalism, a hopeful post-capitalist world. (anti-neoliberalism is rising throughout the world, having to defend itself against imperialism)

      By default, yes, but you could get around it with third party apps like Edge Deflector. Microsoft have now made changes to Windows that mean those apps no longer work, and there’s no longer a reasonable workaround.
