> Please remind me again how Recall sends data to Microsoft. I must've missed that part.

Sure, just post the source code and I'll point out where it does so, I somehow misplaced my copy. /s

The core problem here is trust, and over the last several years Microsoft has burned a hell of a lot of theirs with power-users of Windows. Even their most strident public promises of Recall being "opt-in" and "on-device only" will--paradoxically--only be kept as long as enough people remain suspicious.

Glance away and MS go back to their old games, pushing a mandatory "security update" which reset or entirely-removes your privacy settings and adding new "telemetry" streams which you cannot inspect.
