     @arstechnica "At first glance, the Recall feature seems like it may set the stage for potential gross violations of user privacy. Despite reassurances from Microsoft, that impression persists for second and third glances as well." You don't say. The only thing I want to know about this feature is how to disable it.

     We totally believe them, right?
     "Recall screenshots are only linked to a specific user profile and Recall does not share them with other users, make them available for Microsoft to view, or use them for targeting advertisements. Screenshots are only available to the person whose profile was used to sign in to the device," Microsoft says.

     @arstechnica exactly what you want when creating or issuing TLS or SSH certificates, entering passwords, doing financial transactions, communicating with loved ones, providing references, remotely attending funerals, seeking medical advice
