mehua Adding BNLP by Zip as a default function of Edge is a Horrible, Bad Idea. MS, you are going to get a lot of bad press over adding this bloatware to Edge. It goes counter to your pledge to make MS and Edge simple, clean and above all, user-friendly. This function belongs in the MS Store as an extension, not as a default function of the Edge Browser. Please reconsider making this a default function of Edge. All you are going to do is encourage people to shop beyond their means and just generally annoy your users who will keep getting nagged on purchase pages to bait-click the Zip offer. This is a bad, bad idea. Give it up now, before you take more of a bad PR hit than you already have. Please.
