The improved Recall still tries to record everything you do on your PC.

      Me too… well using linux is technically opting out to that right?

        It’s the only way to be sure Microsoft won’t sneakily turn it back on.

          At least until they sneak it into VS Code’s telemetry. …only sort of joking.

      Just like opting out of using a Microsoft account to log into windows, the grips will get tighter and tighter over time until you are forced to use butt hole ID to unlock your screen.

          I haven’t used windows home in decades, I deal with new installs of pro/enterprise all the time. You have to jump hoops now to create a local account.

              Domain or azure ad join is what I’m used to, but for personal machines and friends/family I do local accounts.
