   @nazokiyoubinbou Wait until you hear that Recall data is stored in plain text. ☠️

     Microsoft wants you to trust them with their AI-powered Recall feature.

     It's actually quite shocking how much tinkering and modding windows 11 needs to cut out all the "features" Microsoft keeps adding, like trying to bypass the default browser, polluting the start menu, etc. Suuure I trust them...

     @itsfoss I double booted for years. Then I got tired of playing detective after every Windows Update and ditched dual booting. Not once did I look back. Windows was the OS until Windows 7. Since Windows 10, it's been a stellar ad platform with app running as a bonus. Windows 11? Pure adware, but now it graces even fewer PCs, and running apps is practically an afterthought. Either you spend your time turning off telemetry or just don't care about privacy at all.

     It is very revealing that this was designed to be in plain text intentionally.

     It doesn't get past the many design reviews by accident.
