HELP! Edge keeps trying to open https://connect.facebook.net/log/fbevents_telemetry/

Browsing web in Chrome on my PC I noticed blinking Microsoft Edge icon on a task bar, when I opened the app it was opening new tab (I think every 15-30 secs) connecting to following address https://connect.facebook.net/log/fbevents_telemetry/. Closing the Edge didn't help, it opened again after probably a minute. Do you know what might that be? Some malware? Cambridge Analitica trying to break in:P? I'm kind of scared.

 

Screenshot below, internet connection is ok, only during taking it I was rebooting router/modem.

You probably have a virus.

Me too:

Whilst doing an EdX online course via their mobile app, it keeps on trying to open “https://connect.facebook.net/log/fbevents_telemetry/“ in my browser.

Annoying, but not catastrophic.

Any suggestions about how to fix it would be most welcome.

:-)
