   Mozilla accuses Microsoft of using Copilot and Windows to steer users to Edge

   Mozilla published a blog post marking 100 days since its report "Over The Edge 2.0," written by deceptive-design experts Harry Brignull and Cennydd Bowles, which alleges Windows, Edge, Bing and Copilot are designed to steer people away from their chosen browser. Mozilla says Microsoft is forced to "play fair" in the European Economic Area under the Digital Markets Act, but keeps using similar tactics in the US, UK, India and elsewhere, citing Copilot opening web links in a side panel instead of the default browser and Windows Backup "silently" trying to set Edge as default. Mozilla says it has stepped up public pressure and contacted regulators and policymakers, urging watchdogs in the US, UK, India and Brazil to pay attention; TechRadar asked Microsoft for comment and said it would update the article.
