Privacy researcher debunks Microsoft Edge’s free VPN marketing, says it's "NOT a VPN" - Reddthat

It’s like Opera VPN: they change your location and call it a VPN, but it works like a proxy in their browser. In this case, it’s powered by Cloudflare and works like a limited proxy version of WARP, connecting to the nearest server available instead of changing your country. I think a built-in VPN for the OS with an option to disable it in certain apps would be better.
