Hi All
Well some good news for a change:
Microsoft will not release its controversial Recall feature next week after backlash from security researchers and privacy experts.
Recall was slated to be released on June 18 as part of a new line of Windows 11 Copilot+ devices. The feature allows the device to screenshot every action a person takes on their PC and was initially hailed by the tech giant as a way to “recreate moments from the past.”
Last Friday, Microsoft Vice President Pavan Davuluri admitted in a blog post that the negative feedback from the security community — along with quickly developed hacking tools that could exploit the feature — had forced the company to turn it off by default and make users proactively opt in.

Will Microsoft actually learn, despite being put in front of congress to explain their actions and then attempt to obtain users information via AI? A deep cultural experience is required across the entire organisation.

Hoping they have a supported GPO to disable Recall on all our corporate-owned assets. Also hoping it has a "red light" that can not be disabled when active, like my webcam does.
