If you can see the "show contact info" dropdown below, I follow you. If you want me to, ask and I'll think about it.

Microsoft haven't even launched this stupid "ai" bullshit yet

and people have already found the very obvious No Shit Sherlock exploits

“Every few seconds, screenshots are taken. These are automatically OCR’d by Azure AI, running on your device, and written into an SQLite database in the user’s folder,”

The database is stored locally on a PC, but it’s accessible from the AppData folder if you’re an admin on a PC. Two Microsoft engineers demonstrated this at Build recently, and Beaumont claims the database is accessible even if you’re not an admin.

Microsoft is currently planning to enable Recall by default on Copilot Plus PCs. In my own testing on a prerelease version of Recall, the feature is enabled by default when you set up a new Copilot Plus PC, and there is no option to disable it during the setup process unless you tick an option that then opens the Settings panel.

Everyone pushing for this needs to Be Made An Example Of, and I'm not joking

It's blindingly obvious that Recall was designed for one reason, and one reason alone: To Put More Laser Targeted Ads In Your Operating System

(well, that and selling new chips I guess)
