So, these days I have a few medical issues I'm working on... I try to login to my doctor's portal, and it's unable to handle Opera. Oh really? 40 years after all this got started, and you won't handle opera? Get it to come up in Edge - finally - and the f'ing icon is using my login information. I think not.
Off to vpn for me.
You're not paranoid if they really are listening and harvesting your data. I'm sure FISA will keep me safe.

OK I give up, what is a login photo?

when I pull up Edge on my base iron laptop, in the upper left of the browser, it seems to know who I am - my base Office 365 image is up there smiling at me. This appears to be the coordinated effort at MS trying to get me to login all the time. Not going to happen.

Sounds like the app might allow single sign-on (SSO).
I take it your log on to your computer login logs you on to your Microsoft account?

No sir, all of local accounts on machines are local, I refuse to use the MS based login. But I do think it has to do with Office 365 and Edge "cooperating."

A number of times, I've seen a message that "Edge is using my webcam", though Edge is not running.
That's why my daughter's have pasted an opaque sticker on their laptop webcams. No spying.

Assuming it's not just a cache issue from a previous visit...
One of the things Microsoft always did with IE and now Edge was integrate it with Active Directory. You ever notice on some internal sites at work you don't have to login when using Edge but you do in other browsers? That's on purpose. That's usually through AD though, so just guessing even if it's a un-authenticated or non-domain login that peeps can still query enough data to get some account info in Edge regardless.
It's supposed to be a "feature", but it's always been there in some form.

IMO Firefox and Brave are the only browsers that even remotely pretend to care about your privacy. I say this as a dude who uses Chrome.

I have seen things like that in real life... and it is not funny.
Or seeing how water is coming out from a plug socket at the wall (one hotel room I had a couple of years ago ).

I remember a hotel in Bangladesh where you felt a certain tingling sensation when taking a shower.
No, not what you maybe think... it came from the electric water heater and one recognized the open wiring
