Installing a keylogger in 2010. You're going to jail for it.
Installing a keylogger in 2024: It's the biggest feature we got this year in Windows 11.
What is wrong with society?
The ruling class hasn't been taken to task in many generations. It's so far gone now that even 20 years ago the government lied the nation into war, then admitted it was based on lies, and the guy whose agency supplied the lies was given a medal. No uprisings, nobody went to jail. Corporations enriched themselves on the war.
I fear its too late now and we're going into some neomedieval era, but with the potential that it goes on for longer than just a few hundred years this time.
It's called who has the gold makes the rule.
And a keylogger that you will choose to pay for....

Ultimately, Microsoft was correct after all when they said before. "Windows 10 will be the last version of Windows." LOL
This dude should have more likes
When they forced me to upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10, that was the end for me.
Honestly yeah, win7 -> win10 was a change of aesthetic and win10 -> win11 is just throwing away any principal left in them
it's gonna have to recall me burning Linux Mint onto a flash drive,
and it better remember that.
Linux: say my name!
From one lifetime Windows user to another, please give Kubuntu a try! It has a much better and more familiar desktop environment than Linux Mint imo
This is a level of spyware beyond my wildest nightmares.
1984
@@SergioBocanegra Someone tell Microsoft that 1984 was a warning, not a manual.
@@winj3r We've been trying to tell politicians that 1984 was not an instruction manual. They don't seem to care. What makes you think Microsoft would care? :P
The question is whether the missing hidden background search and risk-reporting for law-enforcement will come in the flavor of "protect the children" or "fight the baddies"
It does not leave the PC so what are you speaking about?
Nobody's talking about the workplace.. there will be companies enforcing this, gathering that data and asking copilot to rank employees to determine whos fired. Mark my words
Damm. I haven't considered that. I was for now thinking it the other way around, that companies would fear having their meetings and sensitive info recorded, thus they would block this gimmick
I was wrong, they'll love it.
Absolutely incoming. For 100% sure. I won't turn it on. Though I am not using Windows already. Also where I work, I can pick my hardware. I'll pick a laptop, that's Linux enabled.

@@PhilipMarcYT
Of course they will, if they need to pay fines in the billions.
Afaik these screenshot are saved locally, so I do not know if it would break any laws.
Every time I see someone crying about MS "spying" they're an iPhone or Android user who have no problems with Apple and Google recording every word they say, face scanning every photo they take, and scanning every document on their phone to upload to iCloud and GoogleDrive.
Hypocritical idits pretending to care about privacy, when in reality they're just fanboys hating on their chosen enemy corporation while taking it up the *** from their favored corporation. 1984 already happened 10 years ago on iOS and android. Out of every "person" I've talked to that's flipping out about this ALL of them have been iOS and Android users, zero exceptions. Clown world.
Apple and Google haven't been completely banned from the EU, so this sadly wont either.
If it did, Apple and Google would already be completely banned in EU.
I wonder how they're planning on selling this to EU, or if they're just planning on taking the L going forward.
Imagine going to someone's PC with Recall and searching "financial documents", and having a bunch of important files and spreadsheets pop up like its some Hollywood hacker movie scene. 😅

@@V1CT1MIZED Kinda true, but it has been seeing some growth. Hope more people move over.
@alec1575 The growth is the Steam Deck. None of the desktop distros have grown on Steam. They've regressed as Pop!_OS and Ubuntu Core were deducted from the "other" section. On Statcounter, Linux peaked at around 4.1% but now it's at 3.77%. People try Linux and realize it's not what they were expecting and go back to Windows. Unfortunately, the minority of Linux users are just extremely loud, and the data shows this.

Well, it's Microsoft. What do you expect?
They knew it would be a scandal if they hid it, so they made it a "feature", a very logical move.

amd has psp, which as of now is not known to have internet access but is also closed source and compareable to what intel does
arm cpu's have TrustZone
even when 2 of these have not internet access they have memory access while being proprietary

I loved Microsoft’s assertion that “its OK because its all stored locally”. Windows being known for amazing local security of course. I give it 2 months at most before the first screenshot blackmail attacks start. Nightmare fuel.
On the other hand, like someone couldn't have recorded your pc (or you physically) if you were going to be targeted by this. I don't support this, but so much narrowmindess from people saying the same bs.
I give it one month.
@@raizan5946 I have not used MS Windows on my computers on work nor home at least for 15-20 years now. Good luck for Copilot to make this screen shots on my machine.

The entire board of Microsoft should be arrested.
Constant writes to an SSD will reduce its lifespan. Especially problematic if the SSD is soldered onto the motherboard and not replaceable.
Yep. My pc runs exclusively on ssds. This is concerning.
"Awe Shucks! We accidentally shortened the life cycle of the product! I guess those poor idiots will just have to buy more now!"
I highly doubt that the added load of periodic screenshots is a sufficient added load for a modern SSD. A jpeg screenshot of my desktop is about 600kb, if it takes screenshots every minute it's just 869mb, that's 317gb per year. Not really significant.
And I assumed 90% quality setting on my jpeg, it can be compressed much more without significant loss of quality
The whole idea is criminal though.
“We promise we did not include a back door and we haven’t already handed the keys to the NSA”

Considering Microsoft worked with the NSA on PRISM, I cannot be convinced that RECALL data wouldn't be part of this. We can be worried about hackers accessing RECALL data - what if Microsoft voluntarily hands the government your RECALL data?
"I'm sorry, sir. Your browsing history reveals you're visiting sites we don't agree with. Please come with us."

That's one of the main ways how they will force it down our throats, via the cubicle, where you do not have a choice whether to use it or not, so you'll get accustomed to it.
Law enforcement must be ecstatic.
They will be ecstatic when Windows introduces login bypasses for LEO. Think, like post-raid and they have all the suspects locked devices all bagged up in the precinct. Probably, and hopefully that will never happen lol. Until then, they will have to catch their suspects with their computers/devices unlocked. If it's not, then they have to jump through all sorts of legal hoops to tap in.
in a post 9/11 world, can we really do much when it's the government agencies (domestic and foreign) that can potentially overstep with this? I'd be more concerned with them, rather than some LEOs, tbqh.

Its ''stored locally'' and ready for that backdoor.
Leave it to TheVerge to copy paste whatever Microsoft sent over and call it an article. More TheVerge memes inbound.
As far as Recall is concerned, it's what is referred to as a solution in search of a problem.

Microsoft is the best advertisement company for Linux Operating Systems.
I would not trust Microsoft if my life depended on it. Microsoft has lost touch with their consumers. You see it in everything they do.
Yeah, honestly i am glad i switched to linux some years ago, and i never once had thoughts of going back
Their customer has always been NSA.
You're not the consumer, you are the product. Remember it stores the info on your PC, but the only way I can see it work is for it to access a larger language model, ChatGPT or whatever MS decides to use.
It started as a business selling software that is useful to users, to users. It has morphed into a business that sells information about users to third parties. Like FB and Google have done from the start. The one rule about Microsoft is they are late to the party and then do it "better" than the competition. So think everything that's worrying about those other two but more dystopian.

That was my first thought, the corporate IT overlords will be all over this. If Apple doesn't compete with that, and quick, I can see Apple-based corporate environments switching back to M$ hardware for at least certain positions in order to exploit this.
@@Bertminator well, most of the time, you don't get to choose which OS you use for your workstation, your company just buy the enterprise package along with features like this to manage your work
your feelings doesn't matter and your choice doesn't mean anything to them
I shrug! You could do most of this 25 years ago, it's really just been packaged and made easier.
The scary thing about this isn't Microsoft doing it, it's that the majority of the user base will be completely unaware of it or ignore it. Microsoft couldn't care less about the 1% who will strip this out or switch to Linux/Mac.
The East German Stasi is looking up out of the dustbin of history and saying "That's a bit invasive, don't you think?”
Hopefully the EU will forbid the feature for the sake of privacy, security and failing to comply with GDPR (European viewer here).

Without a doubt in my mind, this was developed in partnership with and/or with funding from three-letter agencies.
Microsoft: "At Microsoft, we value, protect, and defend privacy. We believe in transparency, so that people and organizations can control their data and have meaningful choices in how it is used. We empower and defend the privacy choices of every person who uses our products and services."
Also Microsoft: "We're going to record every single thing you do on your computer, make it searchable, and then not secure it."
Also Microsoft: "We bow to governments and gladly cooperate with you"
The next version of this will, at regular intervals, start your cam and mic, and will record everything happening in the room.
Of COURSE it will, they just cannot resist the temptation....
Like it doesn't already. That's funny.
They were already heading that way with Kinect on Xbox. Using it to determine how many people were in a room for a pay per view event. If they were willing to do that, there's no way they can be trusted with a webcam and AI onboard.
After that, anonymized Copilot telemetry for an ad-supported tier unless you pay for it to not do that. 😉
They can't start my webcam. My webcam has a built in cover 😈
"it won't work for every pc"
yea, it'll still upload.. just not give you access to it.
Secondly, the idea that "something saving screenshots and taking a lot of space is easy to track" worries me. One, they can offload the files from your system to their system with "The Cloud" taking over, and then there's the compression algorithm, and hidden file methods, that can help them cover that up.
They don't need the screenshots. An AI that can tell you that there's been a picture of a brown bag in a website you've visited can tell them anything they're interested in about your activity without them needing the screenshots. They just need to query your AI and your PC will do the heavy lifting for them - you provide the hardware and storage for their spyware.
People saying Apple is better clearly haven't seen the recent news of deleted photos of "undeleting" and suddenly reappearing.
That’s a function of how file deletion works. Files aren’t actually deleted. They’re just no longer indexed, and that space is still occupied by that file until another file overwrites it. So if you haven’t overwritten those files, apparently the new OS will re-index them and make them come back.
Having said that, I’m 100% sick of Apple’s anti-competitive shenanigans and their malicious compliance. And I’m sure they’re lying about something…that’s par for the course will all large corporations today.
I’ll never use Windows again if I can help it, but I can’t 100% leave Mac OS either because Logic is just too good, and music production on Linux is positively terrible.
Doesn’t even matter what’s “better “ or not.

Windows users are the frog being slowly boiled. MS keeps improving and adding more creepy surveillance and telemetry. Increased with Windows 10 (and backported many of those features to Windows 7 and 8.1) and has constantly added more and more. I almost see this as an onerous adjunct to client-side scanning to subvert end-to-end encryption; i.e. let's just record all conversations and web browsing prior to encryption and store locally "just in case." This will absolutely be a juicy target for malware, exploits, hackers, and abusive nation-states!
Windows 1984 should be the next version of Windows. 😂😂
The most disgusting thing is their smiling faces when they tell us how wonderful this will be.
Ed Bott: it's the users' fault. They just don't understand Microsoft's innovation and greatness.
Mary Jo Foley: it's the users' fault. They just don't understand Microsoft's innovation and greatness.
Paul Thurrott: it's the users' fault. They just don't understand Microsoft's innovation and greatness.
When I tried gaming on Linux I was so pleasantly surprised - games run smoother, use less resources and GPU temps are lower. I'm on Zorin now and never looked back.
Zorin is what I started with , now I switched to arch (btw)
No worries! It screenshots and logs passwords and bank account pin numbers, with AI helping you to find them, if you forget them. What could possibly go wrong?
Well much worse you could imagine,
Like if your friend or any other person gets physical access to your computet he could literally just search all of your credentials, passwords
Or like if your Pc ever gets compromised due to a zero day or any other reason, besides stealing your data the hacker could also blackmail you if you watch something sussy in your Pc
And microsoft "Telemerty" always works even locally

Everyone needs to know how how crazy this is.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Windows, one hour to install three hours to remove all the bloat.
Every time there’s an update another three hours to remove the new bloat and fix what the update broke.
Microsoft's most advanced spyware in existence
Heaviest*
Microsoft's Bonzi Buddy, but not as friendly or fun.
The UK governments ICO (Information commissioner’s office) is already investigating this as they have serious privacy and security concerns…. they have called it a "Privacy Nightmare"
If the UK government are concerned no doubt the EU will also be looking into this, Microsoft has already had several run-ins with the EU and is currently in there spotlight again, the EU’s DSA has asked for information regarding its AI and so far, they haven’t responded, if they don’t respond before the 27th May they could be fined upto 6% of global annual revenue.
Due to EU’s DMA compliance rules EU windows users can now uninstall Edge, OneDrive, disable feeds and remove Bing from windows search…. These options should all be available to everyone, however the EU has had to force (legislate) Microsoft to make the changes. I can see many lawsuits ahead!!
Currently Copilot isn’t available in the EU as it doesn’t conform with the EU’s data privacy laws.
The only thing that the government is looking into is how to ensure they get access to all the data. All the privacy laws (e.g. GDPR) have explicit exemptions for government spying on you.
Windows 10 will be the last windows I use on my personal devices. I only stayed because of gaming, but steam proton is good enough where I think I'm just done with it all.
What you don't understand is that Windows 11 is already the end. With Windows 10 we managed to make it "somewhat" more privacy friendly but we all have to run on Linux. All of us. And we need to open up and get people together to make an open source program for Adobe-level video and photo editing. Doing that plus more compatibility in video games and drivers, Windows will DEFINITELY disappear!
This made me go from "How can I disable the data collection in Windows?" to "Should I start with KDE or Gnome?"
The solution to this problem is to use Linux as your main OS.
How's the compatibility of the apps? Sadly, school and any organizations won't acknowledge Linux and just release their programs for windows only
@@fevad1246choose open source alternative. If there isn't any then don't use it at all. Security/freedom comes with compromise
@@fevad1246Wine and VMs exist.
@@fevad1246 I used OnlyOffice throughout College and even wrote a thesis in it and got 93% on it. They didn't care. Adobe stuff might hurt but there are alternatives like Davinci Resolve for video editing, Krita and Photopea for image editing/creation, REAPER for DAW work, OnlyOffice and Libreoffice for Office apps. Steam, Heroic Games Laucnher, Lutris for GOG, Epic and Windows installer games. OBS Studio for live streaming and there is a lot more. 90% of people are pretty much covered now. MS is just handing us 4-5% more marketshare that will STICK this time. Once, Adobe is on board we are pretty well set to grow.
The number of people who seem to think this is a backup system is really bothering me.
Recall forces Microsoft to Recall Recall.
And we're counting on you, Chris, to help us remove that LOL
I have been debating about switching to Linux, this will definitely make me do it
Good luck and let me know how it goes!
This "Recall" feature explains why Microsoft is forcing BitLocker on by default
That to. People seem to forget that recent development.
What worries me is the Microsoft relationship with LINUX. How are they eventually going to use the money they've spread around in LINUX to introduce spyware here too?
We need the Chris Techs more than ever.
Chris, I may not have been able to predict the exact way Microsoft would do it, but I'll tell you for sure, 10 years ago I would have told you they were up to no good and it was only going to get worse from there....and here we are. This is the single biggest reason I switched to Linux.
Somebody is going to find a day one vulnerability and grab all banking info and crypto wallets.
Scammer heaven if the screenshots can somehow be accessed locally
@@GladeSwope You think bank CEOs know computers? All they care about is profit margin. And if all their employees know windows, no way are they going to put out money to train them on Linux. And put out the money to get custom Linux systems.
Finally switched full time to Nobara as I'm lazy but had zero problems so far. Just small little tweaks needed.
creepy... very, very creepy... No matter what you don't want to hide, you don't want this tool to see it.
