The Chromium browser—open source, upstream parent to both Google Chrome and the new Microsoft Edge—is getting some seriously enormous load for a well-intentioned feature that checks to see if a user’s ISP is “hijacking” non-existent domain results.

Chromium Edge is enterprise ready

At this week’s Microsoft Inspire conference in Las Vegas, the company announced some impressive improvements to my new favorite browser, Chromium Edge.

The reason is that I really missed the one browser-does-it-all aspect of old Internet Explorer; before this new browser, I was...
