  • In December, an investigation by Tom’s Hardware found that Recall frequently captured sensitive information in its screenshots, including credit card numbers and Social Security numbers — even though its “filter sensitive information” setting was supposed to prevent that from happening.

It’s unlikely that they’re copying all my private messages.

don’t worry, it’s enough if your chat partner didn’t have it disabled

True but at least they will only get a little slice of all my communications, not all of it.

Always expect worse never expect anything else. They are only here to make their lives easier and all of ours harder. Kill capitalism and the economy or forever be under tyranny. What’s worse is there’s no system you can use because I truly believe we cannot properly do an economy. Everytime it’s failed. Always an issue you can’t solve because it’s a part of the foundation.

There’s nothing secret about it. They told us up front.

It’s why I stopped using Windows.

I have a strong suspicion that they’re capturing screenshots & data, whether you have recall enabled or not, and that’s why the performance on Windows 11 is so drastically worse. Turning on Recall probably just turns on users visibility, or some additional digestion of the data.

It really is time for Linux. The signs haven’t only been there, they’ve been bloody screaming. Dystopian as fuck.

Why do people not use Win 11 LTSC so nothing is installed besides barebones Windows functionality? It does not come with Microsoft Store or Media Player
