There are actually two problems here:

1. Bing allowing malicious ads

2. Edge not marking malicious sites

Problem #1 has nothing to do with Edge (other than Edge using Bing by default) and I’m sure Google may let malicious ads through from time to time.

But problem #2 is entirely Edge.

> The malicious URL that Bing is happy to promote can’t fool Google or Firefox. When I simply type the above URL into my Firefox browser I’m faced with a bold red page declaring “Deceptive Site Ahead” completely with details and an option to go back.

The recommendation to stop using Edge to download Chrome is indeed wrong though.
