"Bitdefender Anti-tracker" added to Microsoft Edge
This window came up this morning. It is asking me to turn on or remove extension. Not sure if this is legit. Is it something that should be turned on? The read and change all data on all websites freaked me out a bit (I'm not that well versed in technical matters). See Snipit:
Thanks for any input!

Hi @Kathleen M.
Yes, that is part of Bitdefender's Online Privacy. It is linked with the Desktop App. It is okay to let it install :)
Also, in Edge Extensions, be sure to unhide it, so you can see it.
Kind regards,
Scott

You're welcome, Kathleen. It was a good question asked, just to be sure of what you were allowing :)

Then, would you care to explain why the official Edge extension for BitDefender Anti-Tracker changes to third-party origin after restarting the browser, while I don't even allow any of those?
