Concerned about Microsoft Windows 11 Recall? You should be.

Recall allows Microsoft’s Windows 11 Copilot+ devices to screenshot every action a person takes on their PC.

What can you do? Switching to Linux is the clear answer, but some don't know what distro to try.

DistroSea.com is a website that lets you run and test 60+ Linux distributions straight from your web browser.

Have fun!

The most shocking part of this is that we've entered such a dystopian era where, even on my Linux system, I hesitate to send messages - knowing that most people are freely running Recall.

Everyone now has to think about how you're going to talk with people about sensitive information, and if that person can be trusted if they run Windows.

@AwattoAnalog @illumniscate I'll need information regarding this. :-(

“an easy way to access information about your PC's activity snapshots...” is how this is branded.

However, it will be used to capture screenshots of emails or messages you may have deleted, as well as messages that disappear on platforms like Signal. Banking information, passwords, and medical records put on the screen will be recorded.

The feature that stores data in a database is done in plain text, attackers can use malware to extract the database and its contents.

@AwattoAnalog @illumniscate Basically all my personal files are personal, and not prone to be store by Microsoft.
I have been using GNU/Linux everyday for the paste 21 years, and won't admit my information, thoughts and every byte relating to me or my family will fall into MS's servers (or else GAFAM). However, I understand that all Windows users will let that happen for me, be I aware or not, wether I agree or not. This is outrageous.
