There are features, such as the ability to delay patch installation, that at least at some point Microsoft enabled for enterprise versions of Windows but not for consumers. I wonder if they’ll do the same for Recall. (As noted by others, Recall is a gift to hackers and opposing counsel, which means that any decent-sized enterprise will disable it or not run Windows. But consumers? Most won’t know and/or will think themselves safe and won’t care, and can’t switch to Linux or MacOS.)
I hadn't thought that angle (yet). It brings to mind Bill Gates' book (The Way Forward?) from the 1990s where he said something to the effect that each of us would carry around a personal computing devices that records everything we do, and that this would be good if you were falsely accused of a crime, but bad if you had committed it.
I'm not sure what my point is, except that Gates has been thinking about this exact issue for decades.
@cishumanorg@SteveBellovin .. never mind that someone hacks your computer and uploads fake recall records proving you did the crime you actually did not.
