      My recall what now?

      I think people here assume everyone’s a computer person. I know how to get windows on a pc for free and it works fine. If anything ever goes wrong I just re put windows on my pc again and bam it’s new. I don’t have 5000 terabytes of anime I’m afraid of losing that’s separated across 20 different solid state drives. I stream shit or just re download it in like 720p so it’s fast. Windows works fine. I promise you my life will not be affected in the slightest when some criminal makes off with my recall database lmfao.

        Recall is a database Microsoft (wants to) build that records the screen every moment you use your computer (yes, including the embarrassing stuff).

        It does this to better help you with suggestions.

        It’s going to end a lot of relationships in a very graphic pornographic ways, I expect.

        But a few people will be delightfully (and graphically) surprised that their partner is also into their kink.

        But most importantly, all data that gets stored eventually gets breached to someone who shouldn’t have it.

        So we expect to hear a lot more about (and experience a lot more) blackmail (alongside ransomware and financial crimes) in the next ten years.

      The noose around your computer’s neck isn’t gonna get any looser, until and unless you cut it off.

      You legitimately need help.

      Oh, no! If only I could open the local group policy editor and set the recall policy to disabled! If only I could also enable bitlocker on my drive to prevent and *criminal *from being able to get to data on my drive! Whoever is going to steal my laptop is going to simply take it to a pawn shop to sell it, they’re not looking for the pictures of my cats anyways.
