    Does anybody know why the weather and travel widget on the taskbar knows my location when my vpn is set to nowhere near to me. I’ve got location settings off in privacy and ipleak confirms that my vpn is working but for some reason the travel and weather app are showing the roads and weather in my area.

    I suspect that could be the result of a tracking cookie on your device put there by the use of the weather/news/travel widget.
    Who will eventually be chosen to regulate the Internet?

    You could be right, I dont use edge but if you click on a news story within the widget it opens it. Ill clear the cookies and see if that works.
