Windows, an OS that is spyware and no one should use

Of, ffs, grow up.

An example of Windows being spyware not standard telemetry is the Recall feature. A feature that doesn’t just tell you how the OS is used but actually takes screenshots every few seconds

You have no clue what you're talking about, do you?

Recall only works on devices with an NPU. Do you know why? Because it runs locally. It's got NOTHING to do with telemetry, because it does NOT send data to Microsoft.

Are you a tech-illiterate person?

If not, explain how is it malicious.

"Look at this fossil thinking it's still 1990", I guess?

Mate, did you miss how 30 years have passed? How the world change? Can you even begin to imagine the fine the EU would slap without a second thought on MS if they tried pulling something like suddenly grabbing these screenshots from users' devices?

Then don't enable it.

I don't. I read tech specs and security analyses. You just stick your head in the sand whenever someone says "Microsoft", though. It's silly.

Right. So you're all panicking just in case.

That's what's being swept under the rug as "alarmists being loud".

What are you talking about now?

That is your data they are taking to make money off of without your consent

I mean... They're a for-profit company, so literally anything they do is to make money.

But it's not "my data", it's anonymous. The "engagement" info is in relation to features. That's why some features are removed - because nobody uses them. Or rather: not enough people use them to warrant maintenance.
