A new discovery that the AI-enabled feature's historical data can be accessed even by hackers without administrator privileges only contributes to the growing sense that the feature is a “dumpster fire.”
Exactly. Most people could escape this kind of shit by just switching to linux (which really isn't hard), but in the workplace you don't typically get to choose the OS you use.
As a former computer repair tech who dealt with a lot of average computer users, I'm sorry to tell you that most people cannot switch to Linux. Most people can't even figure out how to use the super basic Windows features.
yeah though in some countries employees were still protected from usage of such software or the usage had to be confirmed and agreed. This seems like it could be used as a loophole
No, not really. If the OS starts using the N-word in its UI, no sane company will say "oh well, we can only do nothing but accept that that's what MS did teehee!"
They'd better disable that shit, or I'll just work elsewhere.
I don’t think companies are excited about this as the fediverse thinks. Recall means that now everything done on a computer is subject to their retention policies and subject to discovery in a lawsuit
I don’t know many companies that are willing to increase their risk that much just to control their employees
Right now I'm terrified that we will have to add local storage to handle this garbage. We use small disks intentionally to push our users to use the network storage, which is backed up. Instead of local storage which is not. I don't need microsoft keylogging and screencapping my tiny disks to death.
