Microsoft Recall is even worse than you think.

It has apparently been snuck into the Edge web browser even if you don't have the Windows version that adds it.

h/t @laimis who pointed out to me that #Recall starts with Windows 11 24H2; I only have 23H2.

BUT I found it in my Edge Browser which updated today to Version 125.0.2535.51.
The setting is:
{3 dots button} =>
Settings =>
Privacy Search and Services =>
Save screenshots of sites for history
(all the way down, default on).

@taoish this feature seems to just capture screenshots to associate them with your bookmarks. There is no suggestion these screenshots are used for anything else.
@jschwart
Thanks. But aren't all screenshots a security risk?

@taoish of course, certainly if your mailbox or internet banking page gets captured that may not be great. I guess for many people it could also be a significant aid with little risk though. It seems to make sense that one would need to enable it explicitly.

So I am surprised that people claim it was enabled on their end without them knowing before. I guess it never actually captured screenshots though, because you'd notice the moment you would use any bookmarks there.

Of course Firefox ftw ;)

@jschwart
Yeah, speaking purely for myself, the correct number of unrequested screen shots stored on my computer is always zero.
