Description

Use this policy to define a list of URL patterns for sites that are blocked from accessing the user's geolocation. These sites also can't prompt the user for location permissions. If you enable this policy, the list you provide determines which sites are blocked from requesting or accessing geolocation. If you disable or don't configure this policy, DefaultGeolocationSetting applies to all sites, if configured. If it's not configured, the user’s personal browser setting is used. For detailed information on valid url patterns, see the documentation on pattern formats: https://learn.microsoft.com/deployedge/edge-learnmmore-url-list-filter%20format. Example value: https://www.example.com [*.]example.edu
