This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
What I don't understand, is what I would need and use it for? Never in my life I thought "damn if only I had a screen recording of everything I did 1 week, 1 month or 1 year ago". Like I don't get the use case, ignoring anything else. There is no use case.
I can view my terminal history and my recently accessed files. I have version control with git where I want and need it.
There is no use case.
So you’ve never wanted to find an article/headline that you vaguely remember seeing? Or a product that you looked at? Or a picture that you looked at?
There absolutely is a use case for full reachability of everything you’ve done on your computer. Git commits and terminal history and “recent” files list don’t even come close to providing the same thing lol
It's true that there's some usefulness in recollection, but geez I find myself digging through my browser history and being absolutely lost... whether it's an article, video, online store product, anything. Then I usually just re-search for whatever it was from scratch 🤷♂️
Another great reason to switch to Linux. Fuck this shit
This is just a thinly veiled ad for AdGuard.
If only we could have a response from an independent security researcher instead of a product, that would be great.
Of course it is. It's invasive by design. The "recent tweaks" were because of backlash, but now that's died down
The worst thing about it is, even if you switch to Linux for privacy yourself, you'll also need your friends to switch as well, otherwise if you message them on their desktop, they're a liability, as the damn recall will be there too, leaking your data.
It'll be hell for activists.
Funnily enough, Signal has circumvented the issue by marking their chat window as DRM content, making it invisible to Recall.
Lol
They used the invasion of privacy to destroy the invasion of privacy?
They didn’t circumvent the issue - they did what Microsoft tell developers to do in regards to their programs and recall lol.
Um, the core feature is privacy invasion. It does what it says on the tin.
It's fine if some people want that functionality, as long as it's not enabled by default.
