With Microsoft Edge, the ability to allow or block websites has always existed on your PCs. Now, we are extending this feature to you and your family’s Android devices. If you have set up a Microsoft family group, any websites you have already tagged as allowed or blocked for your kid(s) will carry the same settings as they try to access websites in Microsoft Edge on their Android devices.

Actually this thread title is little misleading. MS Edge is not on github. Its just a README and License file. No source code.

Also this is bad news for Firefox / Mozilla and possibly for us as far as our privacy is concerned.

Firefox is already dying a very slow death - now this might speed things up.
