Windows Recall

[Shadowmeph]

Apparently you can add in a couple Regedit keys to turn off copilot and this I think it is something like DisableDataanalysis, I have watched a couple of vids not sure if I want to play around with the regedit and then they update win 11 and it breaks my system I checked in my regedit to see if those keys were there and nope but them I take this that this is coming in the new version of Win 11 my version is 23H2 .
I would like to think that ther would be a optin which I also think that the majority of people are impatient and would just keep clicking accept or yes with out reading and have this legal spyware on the system. I never get this about Windows, its like you are renting the OS and not actually Owning the OS.

And like i have so many times before in these forums if I didn't game also could actually manage the sharing files between Linux PCs I would be running Linux , Plus so many programs are only in Windows that are compatible with most business, If used a Linux program to send int something to a business like Docs or other file it won't work on the Business Windows OS

If the article can be taken at face value the plan is to have it opt-out/off by default, and to include the option to remove it all together to remove any doubt.

That said.... MS has been pretty aggressive about putting crap like this into the initial setup with some pretty heavy duty UI designs which lead the user into enabling them even if they're defaulted off.

I guess we'll have to go back to having small primary drives again...
