Google has found a security flaw in Microsoft Edge Browser, a flaw which no patch has been released for yet. The security flaw which was discovered November last year by Google's Project Zero Team is yet to be fixed by Microsoft after they had been notified and given a 90 days deadline to fix the problem and later given 14 days extension because the problem was to complex to fix. The security issue has now been made public.

The flaw which is actually a pathway through which hackers can actually bypass Microsoft existing security measures/protocols and introduce some malicious codes into the victim's computer systems.

So it advisable for the user to stay away from both Microsoft edge browser and the internet explorer so as to avoid stories that touch the heart.

Lol, are you talking about Firefox quantum? FYI, it's still slow, faster than older Firefox versions but still slower than Edge and Chrome.

Edge is the best

Alphabet will stop at nothing to destroy any competing product in the Big Data industry, so I guess Microsoft Edge has to be considered unsafe so we can all depend on chrome, their own browser that submits every of our data to their farms.

The tone of the language is completely unprofessional way of delivering message about issues concerning your competitors in a global market place.

It's all good, the planet needs total control and monitoring.
