If it was any other company than Microsoft, I might have agreed with you that it's fine as long as those things happen.
But if history is any indication of the future, as soon as the tool gets popular, Microsoft will try to claw back whatever data it can about it's users, or add Pro features only available to signed up Microsoft users who pay, or something similar.
I think many of us have been burned by these companies doing bait-and-switch so many times, that it's almost impossible to not see the writing on the wall here and even spend five minutes trying it out.
I much rather wait for the inevitable (serious) FOSS clone that will be safer to use instead.

Yep - though I've no interest in a tool like Recall (I don't really see the point, it doesn't do anything for me I'd want) I do understand that others may feel differently but even if I did want it, I'd wait for the FOSS version as well.
