Keep in mind that anyone you email, chat, video conference, share files, or otherwise electronically interact with can record on their side and you can not prevent it.
Let me clarify: This is Recall,
a Microsoft product,
installed and working across a large number of machines.
While Microsoft claims all Recall snapshots and processing are local to the machine,
it's a all but given that all those Windows machines are using some kind of Microsoft cloud, Azure, Office 365, or OneDrive storage.
Not a bunch of independent,
disorganized one-offs.
Consider this: your boss or another senior person at work has Recall and brings up information related to your employment, performance, and compensation.
A friend has Recall, and reads some email from you in which you confide something sensitive.
That customer support agent at the company you do frequent business with has Recall,
because their employer wants to monitor their minute-to-minute activities,
and brings up your account history.
Independently and uncoordinated, maybe not so bad.
Together, tied back to Microsoft,
it's easy to imagine constructing a profile of you from your interactions with these seemingly independent but in really collective third parties.
