Microsoft is letting Temu go out of control

Temu is attaching itself to my personal browsing in the Microsoft Start page of Edge. Aside from having a very large ad presence they are creating bizarre ads for products they don't sell and associations with companies they don't have using my browsing data. Temu sells cheap Chinese products. Why would they offer services from a local bottle depot or medical lab? Or why would they offer products and services from third party companies? It's pure click bait and worse than spam.

    This is still the case. It would be great to be able to selectively block entities (in particular T*e*m*u) from advertising, but that doesn't seem to be natively possible. I'm not comfortable getting a third party extension to do this.
