Microsoft has started sending alerts to users when they visit the Download Goolge Chrome website to install the browser.

One of them insists: ‘Microsoft Edge runs on the same technology as Chrome, with the added trust of Microsoft.’

And another pop-up says: ‘That browser is so 2008! Do you know what’s new? Microsoft Edge.’

Vole does use the same technology, but claims it is more streamlined and faster.  Of course we expect all this from Microsoft, what is new is that it is starting to directly annoy users until and unless they do what they are told.
