- gigel82 3y agoDon't want to reopen that can of worms since a lot of people were triggered by the distinction but in my case I simply don't want that functionality on my device at all (regardless of when they initially planned on using it) - the only way to never have it "accidentally" scan other content is for it to not exist locally at all. Imagine Microsoft Defender (which is enabled by default on 99%+ of Windows machines) suddenly starts scanning all your local content against some opaque government-provided databases of "bad" hashes. But they pinky swear they won't ever report their findings unless you upload your files to OneDrive. Would you trust them?
