Prevent Microsoft Edge from adding Visual Search to my website

Question

I have an eCommerce website and do not want Microsoft Edge to add a Visual Search button to my images. I think the Visual Search is unreasonable, adding external links to my website and allowing users to click away from my site. The only information on the web is Edge users turning off Visual Search, but nothing the website owner can do to turn off Visual Search. There should be a way to tag my website to prevent Edge from adding Visual Search. Does anyone know of a way to do this?

Answer 1

The question is: is it legal for microsoft to invade our website and introduce a code that takes our clients to the competition without even consulting us? I understand that you want to provide an additional service to search engines, but invading our websites without our consent is abusive.

It is 100% illegal for any individual or company or company to use any intellectual property of a company or an individual website where a copyright notice has been included and displayed. The copyright of a website is legally binding. And what Microsoft are doing is unapproved and unwarranted theft. Simple as that.

Time to open a legal case with the small claims court for massive compensation.

Answer 2

I did use the feedback button and would be shocked to get a reply. It's time to take a stand. Google and Microsoft are playing with website owners without our involvement or permission. Enough is enough.

Answer 3

Agreed. It may well be illegal, if not, it should be. Hypocritical, no doubt about that.

Outrageous!

Answer 5
