Google AMP free edge
Firefox is able to show AMP-free results for searches when strict tracking policy is turned on. Please make this possible for Edge

Have you tried setting Tracking prevention in Edge to Strict?
it's been available for a while for Edge beta on Android but I'm not sure if you have it on IOS? try to use the Beta if you're not already

- cazafurcias42Apr 13, 2020Iron ContributorYeah I tried strict even with beta but AMP results don’t go away. I was told that Microsoft backs the AMP project but is contradictory for me the strong policy against tracking that Microsoft is putting in place and letting google ads going through the AMP loaded pages.
- HotCakeXApr 13, 2020MVPSo you mean that when a website is full of ads/trackers and then it goes through AMP, those ads and trackers are not blocked?
or are you worried about the AMP tracker(s) itself?- cazafurcias42Apr 13, 2020Iron ContributorYes they are blocked since the edge ad blocker is activated, but the website address is still AMP generated by google for most searches through Google search provider. Also, since google injects those blocked ads, the blank spaces remain in the browser, which is upsetting. The fix would be just show search results without google AMP technology, which Firefox and I think Brave, do effectively.
