As best as I can tell, Edge's variation on Google's protected audience API never shipped and was gated behind a flag. https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2024/03/05/new-privacy-preserving-ads-api/ See-also: web-platform-dx/web-features#2635

Summary
As best as I can tell, Edge's variation on Google's protected audience API never shipped and was gated behind a flag. This will make removal dates make more sense.
Test results and supporting details
See this blog post: https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2024/03/05/new-privacy-preserving-ads-api/ and the discussion on web-platform-dx/web-features#2635.
This was never quite the same as protected audience, but it shared some of the same surface area.
Also, it's slated for removal (like Google's API); see web-platform-dx/web-features#2635 (comment).
