   Microsoft’s new “Recall” feature, meant to help users find things they’d seen or done earlier on their PCs, “will create a treasure trove of sensitive information for law enforcement, spies, or hackers,” EFF’s @cooperq warned GZero Media.

     @eff @cooperq which is why I'm teaching myself ethical hacking, and how to build a virtual machine.

     @eff @cooperq in addition to this the iOS Microsoft Teams app was updated today with the following update text:

     “6.10.0
     Get Al-generated meeting recaps on Teams (Premium)
     Ask Copilot questions about past meetings
     Pre-approved meeting backgrounds set by IT admins (Premium)”

     When you have a Teams meeting with someone with a Microsoft computer everything is recorded and searchable for ever - by the user, boss, company, hacker etc. No more confidential off the record conversations
