Furthermore, the company said in a BlogSpot, that they will expand the third-party tracking scripts and they block from loading on websites to include scripts from Microsoft in our browsing apps such as iOS and Android and our browser extensions such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Opera, with beta apps to follow in the upcoming month.
