When corps do questionable decisions I see it as advertisement. If you are a user, how do you feel about the new feature of and are you planning to continue putting your trust in over safeguarding your personal data?

Please support my YT channel. I am a long time free software enthusiast, but I am new at being an evangelist for this freedom and I am thankful for any motivation you can provide, even if it's just one video playback.

@LinuxRenaissance I have been a lifelong Windows user until now. I loved Windows XP & 7. But I've made the switch to Linux. Typing this right now on a Thinkpad T400 running PureOS. Windows 10 is where the creep factor became too much for me, throwing targeted adds onto my desktop. I refused the upgrade to 11. This new recall feature has no apparent practical purpose other than spying on your data.

@tacticalpandale people have rights. big, rich companies have found a way to ignore that and people let them.

@LinuxRenaissance I agree. But I'll be the first to admit I am also guilty of complacently from big tech spying. It takes a lot of effort to avoid, and may not be completely possible.
