Microsoft is rolling out "scareware blocker," which uses machine learning to identify a very specific and pervasive type of online scam.

Microsoft has started testing a new "scareware blocker" feature for the Edge web browser on Windows PCs, which uses machine learning (ML) to detect tech support scams.

Microsoft has been testing an AI-powered scareware blocker feature for a while now. Starting with version 133, you can finally turn it on from Edge's Settings.
