I mean if your problem with Chrome is data collection, then interruptions are kind of beside the point right? You should be looking into what data Edge collects

I mean if your problem with Chrome is data collection, then interruptions are kind of beside the point right? You should be looking into what data Edge collects, including the shopping stuff I mentioned. I'd go check out all the settings pages if I were you, and make sure these options are off (and any others I neglected to list). OTOH if you're just using Edge over Chrome due to other reasons then I guess none of this is relevant.
