In reality, no one will believe anything Microsoft says about Recall. All I know is this is yet another reason to avoid Windows no matter what.
The only way to make people believe Recall is not a privacy nightmare is to fully release the full source of Windows for examination by the Free Software Community. Anything short of that will be branded as "marketing speak" or even lies.

What about "authorized access", who defines that. If Microsoft, there in lies the problem.

I don't think the intent is that they distinguish between unauthorized and authorized access and then only rate-limit the former, but rather that they're implementing a rate-limit on all access low enough to hinder malware extracting all snapshots while high enough to hopefully not impact normal usage. But I agree that releasing the source code would be useful to let people properly verify these properties.
