Is there going to be any conflicts between Microsoft Edge tracking prevention and Ad blocker addons?
Thanks for the effort but it doesn't answer any of my questions.
however i'm going to reply to some of your comments
when you install ublock, you have to tick all of its filter checkboxes, expand each category by clicking on + and tick them all. i've tried all those extensions you mentioned and always went back to ublock because of its effectiveness and because it relies on dynamic filters made by community and not static rules. also for the sake for online fingerprints it's better to use 1 extension instead of those 2 or any others, specially when it does both of their jobs and more.
if you're really worried about your fingerprints you should stop using Internet. there are Tons of other ways to fingerprint you among millions of people. the installed fonts in your computer, your computer time and time zone, your browser version, your OS version etc...even the way your type. your best bet is to use TOR in a Virtual machine and modify that VM to look as different as you can from your main OS.
Deleted Not sure if i understood it correctly but if you're referring to the Edge tracking prevention then there is a whitelist.
Or maybe you meant 3rd party adblockers such as ublock should respect that list as well so we won't have to add a website to both of their whitelists?
HotCakeX no i have asked to let the 3rd party app (like ublock) add its own list on the anti track and override Microsoft's in the event of a conflict.
this would allow to continue blocked ads while preventing applications from directly altering the page as the v3 manifest seems to want to do.
But i donc know if it's technically possible

That sounds very good. i think to achieve that both Microsoft and addon devs should work together.
