    Edge: I use "Strict". So can I simply accept everything?


    .
    For Edge, I have a question about Tracking Prevention:

    Settings and more > Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Tracking Prevention

    If I select "Strict" (and possibly broken sites) does that mean that when I visit a site, I can be lazy and simply accept "everything" if prompted.

    Thanks.

    No, even the strict definition says, that it blocks most of trackers, not all.
    If you accept terms, you accept cookies, that is an entirely different section.
    I have disabled Edge's protection and I rely on CookieAutodelete and NextDNS.
