Microsoft is gradually rolling out the AI-powered Windows Recall feature to Insiders in the Release Preview channel before making it generally available to all Windows users with Copilot+ PCs.

Recall is an opt-in Windows feature that screenshots active windows every few seconds, analyzes them, and allows Windows 11 users to search text within the snapshots using natural language.

As the Windows Insider Program Team said on Thursday, Recall can be paused whenever needed and will only allow access to the data it captures after authenticating via Windows Hello.

I'm kind of tempted to keep using Windows just to remove these features as a big middle finger to MS.

Shrinking their market share is a much bigger middle finger. If you use their product and shut off a bunch of features, you're still using the rest of their product and its other features.
