The only good thing about Recall is that it has been the definitive decider of moving away from Microsoft permanently because for them to create such a ‘feature’ shows a complete lack of care about people’s private data - they’ll be leaving a huge jackpot prize for anyone who breaks into a system.
Just the kind of thing this NSA Prism-participating company would think was a top notch idea.
Not saying the real motive is surveillance… I’m sure a feature update or two away will also turn the data into a real money maker of advertising which instead of just being able to advertise to you, can kill two birds with one stone in being able to increase tenfold the ad revenue by watching who you’re talking with in your emails, your PM’s on Facebook (or wherever else) and then selling marketing data on you AND them.
If I was a purely profit driven individual - I’d be doing exactly that. But I have too much of a heart.
Even if they say that they’ll be abandoning this idea as they have ‘listened to user feedback’ or some other bull, the complete damage has already been done here.
Thank the lord there are an abundance of excellent OS alternatives.
