Is it really going to be anonymous? Half the reason Microsoft created their own browser was because they saw the opportunity to datamined the crap out of user activity (just like Google does Chrome). It may help hide your use from end sites, but I'm sure MS is still getting access to all that sweet, sweet user data.

Even with a VPN if you're sending use data to the cloud (azure) MS is still getting it. The VPN just tries to prevent unscrupulous people from getting it.
