Current-era Microsoft continuing to push the boundaries of consent.
Microsoft Edge is a good browser but for some reason Microsoft keeps trying to shove it down everyone’s throat and make it more difficult to use rivals like Chrome or Firefox. Microsoft has now started notifying IT admins that it will force Outlook and Teams to ignore the default web browser on Windows and open links in Microsoft Edge instead.
Does it? Never had one.
Its usually in the separate tab, the “promotion” tab, where they send most subscriptions emails. It’s not good, but it could be miles worse. Yahoo mail for example is a lot worse: you get Ads in the website taking away screen space unless you pay a premium
This is news to me, I don’t see any in my gmail account. I use adblock though. I also do not see any in the gmail app.
email is an open protocol, there is absolutely no reason why an email client should get away with showing ads.
I see a couple of ad “emails” entries in my promotion side of the inbox, usually in the 3-4 rows, and I also use both adblock + uorigin. Again, not really disrupting, because its usually a section of the inbox I dont go into too much, but I can see it being annoying for others
I don’t have a promotions tab either. Or any tab for that matter.
Edit: I turned the tabs on, no ads in the promotions tab either. Maybe it’s not a thing in my country.
