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.

Click on that image, Other Profiles, Browse as Guest.
Or pick another profile instead of Guest.
Or use InPrivate mode (Ctrl-Shift-N).
These profiles are only (primarily) used to determine what credentials the browser should offer to submit, should you be browsing the same sites as different users.
Chrome does the same thing.

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.

^ This.
Chrome has the same sort of profile management built into it. You can "log into the browser" before logging into any site you visit, and thus use different profiles for different purposes.
It's actually useful. There's no conspiracy, unless one prefers to always browse in Incognito mode and be asked to enter passwords non-stop.

Fo sho. I always use two Chrome profiles. One for business and one for personal use.

On a whim, I recently introduced a non-technical neighbor of mine to the concept of profiles. She was constantly fighting web site auto-logins, where it would login as her husband when she meant to login as herself, and vice-versa.
She almost instantly "got" the idea behind keeping different profiles, and loves the solution. No more manually logging out and then back in, and she can leave her different browser instances each running under a different profile and switch between the two with a single click. She's now saying this completely changed the way she uses a browser (and for the better).

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

Is that how some people claim taking a shower makes them feel energized...?
