Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

The thing to me is that under EU legislation, you need consent from a user to process their personal data.
If the user did not even know about it, then by definition, you did not get consent.

I (and judges) know that this is easier said than done. Even if you're purely working in the interest of the user, you might not always succeed.
But it still means that the onus is on Microsoft here. They need to credibly ensure that they actually tried to get consent, for example this should be opt-in in the wizard, not opt-out.
