Do you trust Microsoft with a feature like Windows Recall?

Copilot+ PCs are set to start shipping in a couple weeks. Those systems have Neural Processing Units (NPUs) that power a plethora of AI features. Among those new features is Windows Recall, a powerful tool that can search through your computing history to help you pick up where you left off. Microsoft advertises Windows Recall as a major addition to Windows 11 but the feature has proven controversial.

Windows Recall takes a snapshot of your system every few seconds to create a database that can be searched using AI. That AI processing all happens locally, meaning none of your data goes to the cloud. Microsoft also promises that none of the data saved for Windows Recall is used to train AI models.
