I forget who did the research, but I believe Recall data was being stored in SQlite on-device, unencrypted. Accessing that data from a malicious script or various applications interested in data collection would have been pretty impactful to end users.
I assume they’ve changed functionality after that media, so I don’t know anything about its expected implementation anymore (and don’t particularly care, since my Windows device is just for games).
aI, on the other hand, is very interesting because it runs locally from a custom LLM with some very interesting instructions pre built. I’m excited to see where it goes and Apple’s press during WWDC makes it clear that they’re extremely interested in a secure and private implementation.

I think this is probably as good as it gets from a security pov, and completely misses the point of why this is an absolutely-terrible-no-good-idea in the first place. I only have windows 11 on my media pc (accidental upgrade that i've never bothered to revert) and I believe it is not able to run recall - but even on a media pc, the thought of MS taking screenshots every few seconds creeps me the f*ck out.
