Edge and cloud based upscaling

2023-06-20 18:27:37.573051+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

As if you needed another reason to not use Microsoft Edge: Edge sends images you view online to Microsoft, here is how to disable that

Edge has a built-in image enhancement tool that, according to Microsoft, can use "super-resolution to improve clarity, sharpness, lighting, and contrast in images on the web." Although the feature sounds exciting, recent Microsoft Edge Canary updates have provided more information on how image enhancement works.

The browser now warns that it sends image links to Microsoft instead of performing on-device enhancements.
