Microsoft could've done the same to Google when it started that mini Do Not Track war.
But it chose to fight a useless battle, when it could've added a tracking or ad blocker by default to the Edge browser instead, because at the time it wasn't sure whether or not to quit the advertising business for good (Bing was losing a lot of money at the time) or double down on it. It seems to have chosen the latter with all the tracking it has put in Windows 10.
