Have to admit, the name "Recall" does have a better ring to it than "Take a Screenshot Every 3 Seconds".

It's a pretty bold move to advertise the inclusion of a key logger in your OS.

[–] eronth@lemmy.world 14 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Not just keylogger. It's a screenlogger too.

[–] admin@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago

Ardamax Keylogger takes screenshots too, should they change the name?

[–] turnip@sh.itjust.works 12 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Youd already be using Linux Mint or Ubuntu if you cared about not being data mined.

I've been Linux only since 2016, after a decade of "trying " to move over. I do still have a partition for the increasingly rare event that I need something MS, which so far has been one class in my University that required a lockdown browser for a test.

Mint is easy to use too if you don't want to fiddle around with various packages.

[–] KingPorkChop@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 hour ago

I guess that means I have to break out the old GOATSE wall paper.

How long until Microsoft gets accused of stealing classified info?

Nahh bro just use third party script then re run it every update 🤡

That's literally what Linux updates are

Anyway if you read the article it's opt in and fully removable.

[–] zipzoopaboop@lemmynsfw.com 12 points 4 hours ago

Till they change their mind again. Ms in my experience also really like to disregard your settings

[–] UsoSaito@feddit.uk 3 points 3 hours ago

Normally they'd say this and then change it again. That's pretty much how every "feature" they've added to their OS and it is becoming a little too bloaty.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

They update, this third party script is to make windows less rapey

[–] easily3667@lemmus.org 1 points 1 hour ago

Tell me you're a young man without telling me you're a young man.

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 14 points 6 hours ago

We live in weird age, where using Windows is becoming harder than Linux (even though it has its own issues).

[–] hornedfiend@sopuli.xyz 32 points 10 hours ago

I always “Recall” how shitty windows is, whenever I see the word mentioned.

This comment is critical of Microsoft because the company name was mentioned in the article.
