    I still have it on Edge Canary. It appears as a 'shield' in the address bar. You may have to go into Edge Settings to turn it on.  I seem to remember it getting turned off and then found something in settings to make it available again. They have been experimenting with this and turning it on for different users. 

    It is really good feature and I verified that it works with regard to the IP identification. There is a Website for GRC.com that has a test to check your IP and I have used it to verify that the IP is adjusted due to the Secure Network Feature that works like a VPN.  

    I dont recall if any of the other Edge installs have this feature. Only have seen on EdgeCan at this point.

    It is Oct 24, 2022 and I see the shield on my install.  I know that the beta software is due to change without notice though...
