I have Malwarebytes installed and block all trackers in Edge and on my iPhone.

The idea of recording my activity on my laptop is something I could see being useful in a business where I’m billing non-stop and this feature would automatically generate invoices.

But on my personal laptop? I really can’t think of a single legitimate scenario.

More importantly, I think Microsoft should be demonstrating what use cases it envisions outside of potentially generating LLM training data.

Recall gives one such example I'd like it for in the intro paragraph on the feature's page:

> Recall’s analysis allows you to search for content, including both images and text, using natural language. Trying to remember the name of the Korean restaurant your friend Alice mentioned? Just ask Recall and it retrieves both text and visual matches for your search, automatically sorted by how closely the results match your search. Recall can even take you back to the exact location of the item you saw.

Of course you're welcome to say this isn't a legitimate scenario for you, just as someone might say no situation is legitimate for them to need browser history, but that doesn't mean there is no legitimate scenario for consumers in general. It also doesn't say much from you beyond "I don't like it".
