This is how Microsoft Edge wants to remove users from Google Chrome
Microsoft has integrated a virtual private network (VPN) into its Edge browser, a novelty that will offer up to 1GB of free traffic per month and will soon be available to users.
The integration of a VPN in Microsoft Edge began a year ago under the name ‘Edge Secure Network’ and it has been in testing on the Insider channel ever since, where some participants have been able to test this tool with up to 15GB of traffic per month.
This novelty has begun to reach the stable channel, where several users have already been able to see it within the browser, in the Privacy settings. Its purpose is to protect the user’s browsing, especially when connected to a public WiFiinsecure or without a valid certificate such as HTTPS.
Also, with this novelty, once present in the browser, it offers three levels of security from which the user can choose, as is currently the case with tracking prevention and enhanced security mode.
So, you can choose to protect selected pages, optimized protection or on all pages. In all cases it offers 1 GB of free data traffic through the VPN, less than what it has allowed during the trial.
As reported in neowinalthough this tool has started to reach end users of Microsoft Edgethe company has yet to officially announce it and also offer the prices of the additional GB that they want to contract.
For its part, Google informed all its users that it has advanced one of the most important updates for the proper functioning of the equipment where the browser is used.
In this same sense, Chrome introduced its two memory and energy saving modes, Energy Saver and Memory Saver, respectively; which are already available and enabled by default in your browser, Chrome.
Also, and understanding these needs, the company announced a series of new features for its browser in December last yearwhen he indicated that this would be “optimized for the device’s battery and system memory” of users.
