If you set your default browser as Firefox, and you do a taskbar search and you get a web result, apparently (and in my experience) it opens in Edge. The HTTP/S is being manipulated to produce
Web links by default obviously don't have
For Microsoft to say “yeah sure you can set your own default browser,” and then throw that protocol at the beginning of links at it’s own whim, that is forcing us to default to their own browser, would pass a senate test, surly not?
Am I going crazy or wasn’t this dealt with in United States vs Microsoft Corp?
And also, “sure you can uninstall Edge” but at a cost.
