Right? If you asked me, I'd say that domain "microsoftedgeinsider.com" belongs to some Indian scamming call centre.
For what reason have they purchased that domain instead of hosting it under microsoft.com ?
- anoncake 7y agoBuying a domain was easier than dealing with the MS department of subdomains of microsoft.com?
- BlackRing 7y agoI would have believed that if it were HP. Snark aside, it is unusual behavior coming from Microsoft.

- londons_explore 7y agoHosting things under microsoft.com is bad for security. One xss attack anywhere on the domain can steal cookies for the whole domain. As a web developer, I only want to build to the security level my site needs, not the security needed for Microsoft logins.
- kevin_thibedeau 7y agoThey must own the .microsoft TLD.
- technion 7y agoI'm having trouble digging it up now but at one point there was a domain associated with promoting Exchange 2003 that Microsoft let go of. It was still linked from all their docs but the new owner had it redirected to a Youtube with a fly fishing tutorial. Strangest hijack I've ever seen.
