Presumably Microsoft can substantiate the claims that Edge is both faster and safer than Firefox and Chrome.

But if not, I don't think the UK Advertising Standards Authority's remit includes adverts built into already-installed software.

Microsoft can claim anything, whether true or not.

Edge may well be faster in some cases but now way is it safer. It takes Microsoft weeks or months to fix bugs that Firefox and Chrome fix in days, or even hours.
